Felled a small water oak for nefarious purposes today.  Still got to cut/split the top but the base made two good staves.

Tonight was quite interesting. I was invited to Cub Scouts Blue and Gold Banquet. I was never in the scouts as a child. I was in 4-H though a feel both of these organizations great for kids. I learned a lot tonight. It was interesting watching the kids basically graduating from one Cub den to the next. One cub scout received the arrow of light. It has many symbols of their Cub Scout Journey. It is received before they cross a bridge to become Boy Scouts. I was asked to bring a selfbow and one of my arrows and shoot it as tribute to the arrow of light. It was really a neat banquet and I really enjoyed it.
I was asked to put on a little presentation. I brought my bear hide, mink, Wessels and muskrats. I took several selfbows, stone points, arrows and knives. I took my two selfbow buck antlers and the bows I got them with. I gave a little explanation of all the things I'd brought and a short story of how I got started and things I'd learned. Everyone seemed to enjoy my short presentation as much as I enjoyed theirs. I enjoyed showing both kids and adults our passion. They asked lots of good questions. I really encourage you all to give this a try if someone asks you to. It's really rewarding and they feed my wife and myself pretty good to.

Still to wet here to get any farming done. I'm getting seriously behind schedule now. Starting to get worried about making it to Marshall. Yesterday I pulled my camper out and started checking everything out on it. Lights, battery, water system, oven, refrigerator and water heater. Next tires, brakes and wheel bearings.
I sure hope I get to use it. Not much time to get a lot of work done and it's still raining. I'm thinking I should have gone to the Classic.
