Also getting gear together for Elm Hall, my first shoot, so a little exited.  :D  I have an old bow that I just refinished for it, photos to come.

That knife will look great, is that a Damascus steal blade?

Our own Pappy posting a glass bow!  :o (A) You're right, waste not want not.  They have their place, like my soaking corner of the atmosphere.   :)

Be sure and look me up when you get there, I won't be hard to find. ;) Yea glass I know, I have several, I don't shoot them and haven't for years but still have absolutely no problem with them.Yes it is Damascus a friend of mine forged , I gifted him some old steel I had and he later came back and gifted me this blade, he does very nice work and I hope to make him proud with a nice white tail antler handle, we will see ,steal lots of ways for me to mess it up.  ;):)

I was kind of planning on it, and I didn't think so.   ;D
I'll be bringing my trade bow if I can get it shooting in time.  I just found that the last two months of high humidity has weakened my bows and weighed down my arrows, so I have some testing to do.

55 degrees in the U.P. this morning, typically mid 70s during the day.  The Mitten is hotter;  You must be cooked down in Tenn.

Finely got most everything put away and caught up on my sleep, loved the trip but always good to be home. Took a few pictures but was pretty busy cooking and shooting and lots of just hanging out, very good vacation for me and I think all the rest. Our camp at ElmHall, of course we kept the fire going for a week.  :)
