Clint, the only thing I've seen to run over are sheep and camels. They like to stand in the middle of the around on the back side of curves. I was three hundred yards from Jordan when I took those pictures.

I think the internet/Youtube claims there are mermaids in those Israeli waters.  Chip a harpoon with that brown flint and make us proud.  I'm sure Weeki Wachee will reward you handsomely!

Friday and raining ,but I don't even care, I am headed to the cabin early I hope. ;) :) We have the youth hunt this weekend but ant sure how many I will have,only heard from one so far.We also have the TwinOaks squirrel hunt going on,that should be fun.We are doing it earlier this year because it seems in Feb. all
the squirrels are dened up and hard to hunt,if it is anything like last week we should kill a bunch of them this weekend.  ;) :) I also have an Osage I am starting and laid out a Yew yesterday with natural deflex in the handle and hope to get it on the new reflex/deflex form this weekend. Putting the final coats of sealer on Rocky's bow so it should be all finished up this weekend.No telling what else we will get into. :-\ ;)  Hope yall have a good one. See ya Monday. Life is Good. :)

Work, Matt. But, kinda short vacation. Very nice and caring people. I'm kinda hoping to see a rocket attack from Gaza before I go. The locals say they get their coffee cup full, go to the shelter when they get the warning,  listen to them explode in the desert and go back and eat dinner. They said it's quite boring. ??? :)

Guy  ;) ;D ;D ;D We try. Another great weekend,lots of bow work going on along with the youth hunt,no deer killed but a good time had by all.We had the annual TwinOaks squirrel hunt this weekend,at last count We had 27 squirrels,not sure how many more came in yesterday morning,Will was the big winner with 13 I think,of course we all were winners cause we got to eat a lot of them Saturday night. :) 2 of the kids decided they had rather hunt squirrels than deer. ;) More action I guess. :-\ Here are a few pictures of the fun. ;)  My Yew floor tillered and ready for the form. My weapon of choice for the squirrel hunt over the weekend.
Dan and Jon still chasing rings, I think they are about to get there. ;) :) :)

Dan doing some shooting,he is getting pretty good with that thing. ;) :) Jon almost done chasing,just a bit more around the knot. ;) :) Me stretching one of my brain tanned hides,trying to dry it out.I had a lot of projects going on this weekend. ;) :)
