Happy Birthday Pappy! You are a couple of days later than my dads. His was the 15th. Man I do miss him. Been gone 8 years now. Can't wait to get down there and work on my bow and maybe do a little hunting and share the Good Life with you southern boys.

I always kid my mom that I know what she got for Christmas
Bone pile

Been using that one all my life too!!! 9/27/58............. ;D

And Greg....Robert Frost is one of my Favorites...and that Poem is one of my favorites too..


The Road Not Taken

Two roads diverged in a yellow wood,

And sorry I could not travel both

And be one traveler, long I stood

And looked down one as far as I could

To where it bent in the undergrowth;

 


Then took the other, as just as fair,

And having perhaps the better claim,

Because it was grassy and wanted wear;

Though as for that the passing there

Had worn them really about the same,

 


And both that morning equally lay

In leaves no step had trodden black.

Oh, I kept the first for another day!

Yet knowing how way leads on to way,

I doubted if I should ever come back.

 


I shall be telling this with a sigh

Somewhere ages and ages hence:

Two roads diverged in a wood, and I –

I took the one less traveled by,

And that has made all the difference.

Friday again,couldn't get here fast enough.Got no big plans for the weekend other than
putting up another stand or 2 and working on Tom's Memorial bow. I also need to get
some shooting in,I was so disgusted with my shooting last weekend that I haven't picked up a bow all week,time to get back on that horse this weekend.  ;) :) Sometimes when I shoot bad it helps to just leave it alone for a while. Hope yall have a good one.See ya Monday. Life is good. :)
