Get well Big A.  Take the PT slow and dont push too soon to allow joints to heal properly. 

Our archery season in NY ends at sundown.  Davey shot a 5 ptr and John Swain shot 2 does.  Havent heard anything from Chuckie.  My daughter got a shot at a small doe on Saturday and missed just in front.  She turned areound right after and said, "that was AWSOME!"  I think she is hooked.  Gun season begins tomorrow and everything changes.  It runs until December 11.

Eddie I got your bag and will try to ship it this week. 

The top picture of my blade blanks shows a knife I finished made of the same steel.  I like Osage handles.   :)
