Warm weather would be reeeeal nice right about now. I'm typically a cold weather guy but am ready for spring in the worst way.

I picked up a Ruger 1911 on impulse while at Cabela's today I'll probably bring down as well as possibly my cap and ball revolver.

Great.  I've never shot a 1911 or a cap and ball revolver.  Are you bringing that stave?  Hopefully its a bow by now.



Does anyone know if Derik is coming this year?

I'm working on that stave as my #1 bow swap bow. It's roughed out and ready for the caul. There's a good chance it will be down there being worked on.

Same thing Mr. Bass. Just a cheap Pietta Clone of a Remington 1858. Fun gun to plink with. Real fun when there's no wind!

I think he has spring break same time as me. I'll send him the link.

Thanks Tracy.  I'm sure he would have a good time hanging out with us.

Derik doesn't think he can swing it with the Classic coming up and other obligations.

I had a beautiful, busy day off.  I cut firewood for pizza oven and the workshop (if needed), hauled up blocks and fire bricks from the party field to construct said pizza oven.  Also, brought up the smoker from the party field.  Then I mowed the 3-D course. At that point I needed a break from physical work, so I reloaded some .38 shells, then shot most of them.  :)

There's still a lot I want to do before you guys get here, but it was a real good start.  I'm off tomorrow, also, but it's supposed to rain.  If it rains, I'll clean the workshop and the cottage.

Sounds like you are working hard Dave.  We can pitch in and help do some stuff when we get down there. 

What calibers do you reload?  I did a little shooting today also.

Dave, I have a 3d deer target I can bring to use on the course if you'd like.

It's been so long since I shot I figured I'd better break out the bow and fling a few arrows in the basement. My archery muscles are a bit out of shape. I'll be feeling it tomorrow.
