What Did You Do Today?
loon:
Yesterday a family friend gifted me a great compass and Ishi in Two Worlds: A Biography of the Last Wild Indian in North America. Really cool gifts..
Went to Lowe's to find a replacement for a lamp glass thing of a ceiling fan that I made fall and shatter by fooling around with a 6' bow, installed it, cut carpet to put in a cardboard box, shot it with a manchu thumb ring, was a bit weird, arrow was going all over the place.. same with bare thumb. sigh. i need a lot of practice? It seemed like the arrow didn't always land straight, I wonder if part of it could've been due to the folded carpet in the 'target'
then played Enderal.
Still have to make arrows, fix hornbow twist, make a bow rack, make that red oak bow...
University starts in a week.
Also have some work to do.

Drying apples today.
DC:
I have to do some of that. We had a bumper year for apples up here. Every tree is just loaded. You don't want to leave the windows on your car open or it will be full of apples when you get back ;D ;D ;D

I spent all day trimming trails to stand sites all day with my Dad. He drove the old riding mower and I packed a chainsaw up and down the hills clearing anything in the way. I'm whooped and tore up by osage thorns. The burrs are terrible this year. I had them everywhere. All the dead ash trees are depressing. Our woods are going to be a mess when they start falling. I'm not looking forward to clearing 30" diameter dead trees from our trails.
We were able to get the mower to all of our stands except this one. Its in the valley behind the house. It's to steep to get a mower down the hill. I used a weed eater to clear it out. I like a wide and clear path to my stands. I like to walk on bare dirt and not have any weeds or leaves hit my clothing on the way in. I don't want to leave any scent behind for a deer to smell.
