The heads about done, just need some drying time and sealer. A friend brought me an old wild bore head he found on a farm west of Clarksville, decided to euro mount it also, we don't have any on the farm yet but am sure it's just a matter of time they are moving this way they say.  :)

More brats and inner loin on the fire, it turned cold so some time around the fire with old friends.  :) GregB hasn't been doing well and was good to see him out.  :)

Deer head in peroxide, looking good so far. I bought my last Kobota in 2002 and decided it was time for another, the old one has been a great machine so went with another, little bigger and double seats for the grand kids. Hope it last as long as my old one did, if it dose it will get me there.  :) I kept the old one also, still love it and it works great I will use for the rougher jobs around the farm. ;) :) at least for a while.  :)

Final boil on the deer head, getting quite the collection, not sure what I will do with them but enjoy doing them . A buddy showed up Friday evening with a Osage log he had cut but didn't want, good looking log, clean and good rings, I feel sure I can find a use for it.  ;) :) :) sealed the ends and will split it when my shoulder get ready for that.  :)

Got 13 lbs of burger and 14 lbs of steaks from my doe, last of the brats for lunch, think I have 3 or 4 packs left and will be time to make more. With all the wood cutting we are making a start on replenishing the wood pile. :) Long way to go but it's a start.  :)

Great weekend, very busy one but I like it that way, keeps me out of trouble. We done a lot of clean up from all the trees cut around the cabin, got most of the logs dragged out where we can cut them up for fire wood, still lots of brush but making head way. I also got my deer worked up and in the freezer along with 2 more euro mounts and a little hide work. Quite the mess but this is before we started, looking better now.  :)
