Well I got the tip over lays all finished up and the 2nd Osage bow and out to 38@ 26 1/2. Looking for 34/35 @ 26 1/2 so by the time I do a little sanding and shooting it in that should be about right, also got Margaret Ann's first bow tiller out close/handle worked down /sanded and ready to cut nocks, all I need is the length , it is 24 inches now, guess I will have to wait until September to finish it up ;) :) I am betting 20 or 21 inches but who knows she may be a tall lanky gal ;) :) :) So I guess I will just wait. :-\

FRIDAY, 100 days as of today left until retirement. 8) Headed to the cabin as soon as I get away and looking for another good weekend, got a few trees to try and clean up from the last storm and also plan on flipping the tips on my Osage and hopefully get some skins on it this weekend. also planning on some tractor work, it needs to be serviced and I am going to swap the rear wheels to give it a wider foot print [little tipsy as they are now] It is fixing to be bush hogging season and I need a little more stability on the hills I have. My old 20/30 John Deer is a little lower and wider than my new tractor and I think spreading the rear wheels will help. :-\  Anyway Little John I think is coming down and who knows who else, Several of the guys are off to Cloverdale for there event this weekend so should be a pretty peaceful weekend around the farm. :) Hope yall have a good one also.  ;) Life is Good. :)

Be careful on those hillsides Pappy.  Those last 100 days will fly by.  I have 2,370 days left before I can retire  :P

Keep that tractor upright, don't want to spoil retirement. I'm about a year behind you. I'm ready now. Oh, and Shane got some lizard permits in the draw.

Yay Pappy!
Keep that tractor vertical,  I laid down a backhoe one time on a job site. It wasn't too much fun,  but those are easy enough to sit back up again.  The tractor not so much. Take care of yourself and I hope I can make it down to see you one of these weekends.  Life is good!
