Sister resting, long weekend for her, man she is getting long. A buddy brought me over some more Turkey feathers, I have a freezer full and hopefully Matt and I will get a chance at the IBO World to work them up. The start to our new Black smith shop, Bill and Geoffrey started cutting post this weekend. We plan on a 16x20 shop.  :)

Thanks for doing this pappy!

I had a great time! : ) I definitely plan to come back up in a couple of weeks and hopefully Jon can show me how to make a string for the lam bow.

Here's the finished cup and Pappy here's the cup next to a gift I'm bringing you in two weeks. I'm sure you know what it is.
