Yeah Pat you better cut before the highway dept. gets to it.
If we can't help each other what is the point of being here?

Ronnie, the cane grows safely along my driveway. It is the sourwood shoots that I share with the NCDOT.

Really like trading at the Classic so bring some elk and deer horns, buffalo horn sheaths, leather projects etc.  The other thing I enjoy is the raffle things.  Sure some talented people that donate to the cause.  Just my opinion, but it always amazes me about how much it costs to put the Classic on and wonder how they do it?  The food and cooking must be very expensive!  I try to think of something for Pappy and Miss Joanie and laugh as he especially is the most "gifted" fellow I know.  Just look at his knife rack!  If I make it this year am looking to trade for a Jon knife and a sheath made by my friend, GregB.  I have something in mind to trade Will for a blade or two and hope to take home a bow made by Kennan.  I have a large elk hide for Pappy knowing the last one turned into a major project! Also look forward to talking to Jimmy B. as he is one of my heros!  A/Ho Joe  Forgot to mention I will need a new small skinner from Shannon as I broke the one he gave me>

Chris, I've been looking around. Not many straight ones(relatively speaking) but I'm sure I can find a few for you.  I'm sure we can work something out.  ;)

Dang...
I can see I'm gonna have to pace myself when I get there...
Looks like an awesome opportunity to trade for goods that I don't often see around Houston.  :)

Have to Bring some Buckskin and Elk leather and maybe some Kangaroo...
And I've got a Real Nice 6x Elk shed that I picked up a few years back, haven't had the heart to cut it up yet.
Dried Back Sinew, dried White Tail Toe Bones and leg bone, and some Horse Bone.
Snake Skins, of Various Southeast Texas species.
And some finished pieces of wood for sure, and maybe some leather.

And Man! I have to get to work on my Festival Mask!
May will be here before you know it...  :)

I can bring a small tent if anyone needs one down there.  I think it is 8' x 8'.  There is a pic of it on page 25 of the What did you do today post.  I'll make somebody a good deal on it.  It kept me dry during the few showers we had last year.
I started out with nothin' and I still got most of it left

Jon:  If I get to come to the Classic, I have a wolf winter kill 6 point bull elk head.  The horns are bleached white and there is still some hide attached to the skull.  Sorry I don't know how to post pictures, but maybe could send a photo by email!  Joe

Joe, I think Jon has a knife in mind that he made, and I made the sheath for it. Will be good to see you again!
