Pappy, Twin Oaks is looking good. Don't get too fancy with all that new gravel.  ;D I can't wait to see it again in person.
Nice to see Rob Tattoo there. He said hell be back to the Classic this year.
I'm envious of Will's beard. I used to have one that looked like that but time and erosion has diminished it a bit.  ;D

 ;) :) :) We won't Pat,just trying to get it where you can pass on it without getting into a ditch. :) :) Steve I usuall spread it around when you ant there. ;) ;D ;D ;D
Getting the rock spread today and then some crush and run put on in a couple of weeks when the bigger rock settles a bit.Still lots of clean up around there before the Classic but we are looking better, long winter has taken a toll and takes a while in the Spring to get things back in shape.Almost done with the Hickory staves,got 3 more on the form yesterday,down to 6 and 4 kids. Hope to finish them by the weekend so I can move on to other things.  ;)

I'd say Sally's feelings are going to be hurt.  You might want to find her some stuff to chew on and make it up to her.  She may never speak to you again!! :)

Nope Steve,at least not mine. ;) ;D ;D ;D Another great weekend,got a lot done around the shop and Club and had time for a few things for ourselves. Finshed the Hickory staves,cleaned the shop and moved the big hot box,also got a pole set for night lights and flag and got started on straightening the pavilion. I got my
Yew bow down to 50@26,seems about right now and also got some hide work in
Saturday evening. Here are a few pictures of the fun.  ;) :) Hickory ready for the classic,26 staves and 3 with rawhide backs. ;) Getting brains ready for some tanning. ;)

Ready to do some tanning,blend the brains then I bring them to a boil for a short time to kill anything bad in them,you got your hands in them all day so thought that might be good. ;) :) Dan [Jon's brother showed up for the weekend to work on his Hickory bow. Sally and the traveling vet shows up. ;) :)
