Looks like great fun Pappy, yer blessed.

8up:
It was a great time this weekend at Pappy's. I managed to get my piece of Hickory tillered and shot for the first time. Pappy took the first shot which was fitting since he had saved this stave since 5/23/03. I also worked on my sons hickory stave and got it tillered out to 18". Pappy would not let me give him the snake skins and I wouldn't let him pay me so he CHEATED he walked away and came back with some yellar wood knowing I couldn't refuse. Saturday CastIron made a superb lunch and dinner, I think he missed his calling and could have made a greal living as a chef. Life is Good and has improved since Pappy started letting me share his world........Ron

Pappy:
