How about a Texas Point

It  started raining in Penna. again, so I broke into my supply of Texas rock that I got from Eric. Seemed to work just fine. Later Bob

Nice, I like it
Life is not a journey to the grave with the intentions of arriving safely in a pretty and well preserved body. But rather to slide in sideways, thoroughly used up, totally worn out and loudly proclaiming....WOW WHAT A RIDE!!

Oooh, that looks like some of that tough TX perd. Most of those are real character builders - nice point :).
When you come upon a track or trail you do not know, follow it to the point of knowing.

Everyones kilns are different, but mine runs it best @ 350 to 375 degrees with no hold time. Be sure and keep an eye on it for if you go over 400 you have ruined you Texas rock.
