Just got back from ElmHall yesterday evening so will have some pictures in a day or so when I catch up here a bit. Had a great week that I really enjoyed.

Welcome back, Pappy. Looking forward to seeing the old gang in your pics.

Thanks Pat,Yep got everything put away and some what caught up around here, I will post some pictures in the morning,

it was a great time for sure and got to see and visit with a lot of old friends not to mention I shot over 600 arrows and packed 12 miles or so over the week,eat like a king and enjoyed a few adult beverages and the camp fire.

Don't get time at our events to do that.

I have to head to the cabin early this morning, TwinOaks has a 1 day 30 target open shoot this Saturday the 8th August and I have some things to get done to be ready for that. ;)Always something it seems.

Life is Good.

Here are a few pictures from Yankee country, [ElmHall MI.] this was was home for 8 days, thanks Rocky for providing it for us. Also a very cool range, had around 25 targets per side [2sides] very cool shots with trails just marked with flagging, I told them it was kind of like stump shooting at RineHarts.

More from the ranges, and be careful where you walk, they have some huge ant hills, wouldn't want many but wished I had 1 on my farm, you talking about cleaning skulls and bones.

Had 6 from TwinOaks go and a couple of good friends , so camp was smaller than normal but very nice, Bugs weren't bad at all but still kept a fire going 24/7. We shot the range at least twice a day, some of the guys even more.

My arms are still sore.

For some reason Gary and Ron never really got along much when they are in my camp together, but this years was different, it's like they are both getting older and have buried the hatchet, we had a really good visit and talk. Very cool. Also this sign is everywhere up there. I had to have one just because.

My day pack I carried with me to try and stay in some kind of shape for CO. while I was there, packed the trails a couple miles every morning. I got a special treat to go visit Ron's new Minny cabin on a lake in the back side of the family farm, I had heard about it and wanted to see it , low and behold he invited me to go see it. Very cool with lots of old memories of his past.
