Good news, Pat!

Happy Independence Day to one and all.

Hey Patrick, glad to hear you going to make and bring your uncle along for the festivities. :OK

In other news, it's raining like a big dog here today. Keeping the roofs and vegetation good and wet mother natures way. (R

Doing odds and ends in the shop today. Feels good to be back in it. Cataract surgery went well, after 30 years, no glasses. Feels kinda funny actually.  :)

It's been a dang long while since the last MoJAM it will be great to see y'all again.

No glasses.. wow, don't know if I'll recognize ya?  ;) Glad that the surgery went so well, it is amazing what they can do these days.
Spent some time in the shop yesterday evening with friends Andy and Wyatt "advising" Wyatt on his 4H project bow.  It's coming along nicely and he's looking to do some tip overlays and also glue some extra onto the handle, mostly for looks.

Good to hear your eye surgery went well gifford! Now you can't use the excuse "Oh man, I need my glasses,  I can't see a thing!"  >:D
It will be good to see you buddy!

Thanks guys, it's quite a difference. My wife doesn't have to read the street signs and what not for me when we're driving in a new area. As long as I stayed in my home range I knew where everything was, where to turn etc. But a new area, got a bit frustrating sometimes. We'll see how it goes. I sure do need sunglasses on a sunny day.  8)

Good deal buddy! Get you some polarized sun glasses,  it will darken just a bit but it will kill the glare. I wear them all the time.  I just about can't drive without them in the daylight.

Glad it went well dan. Also good to hear you will be making it pat. I mighht might not be there as early as planned. I am training for the mr340 and need an extra weekend for a long float so it might be as late as wednesday before we get there this year.  Its not something i wsnted, but i need the training time. 340 miles in oess than 88 hours wont be easy. Ive been out of the shop and havent even been shooting because of all this damn paddling. Lol i did get a few small things fornthe auction and im hoping to make a bownthe week before to donate so it shoild be a good time. Ill donwhat i csn for you bob, worst case, i have power but youd have to camp close to me,   (-S

I was beginning to worry about you Dave... you haven't posted in a week...  I'm sure I can find a place to plug my fan.  (W
I looked up the mr 340... you are some kind of nuts... but I'm thinking if you shaved off that beard the weight loss might make it easier to paddle...  ;D
