That looks like a beautiful arrow - expertly made!  His presence is missed on these boards alright :)

I'm glad the three people found him and I hope he overcomes his problem.  Pass on a "Merry Christmas" wish from me please?

I have been missing Dana on this forum, and wish all the good in the world. I have had real good dealings with him and he is the real deal kind of a person. Be strong Dana and just know you'r the man. Very nice gift.      Kenneth

Dana's got some strong opinions but he's good people for sure...and super talented!  He is missed, maybe Santa will let him back on :)

 That's sad, I hope he get's his life together. I'm glad somebody found him, Dana's a very nice and talented guy, I hope he shakes his demons.

Ron...I will let him know...Jeff...most Yoopers have Strong Opinions...some good ...some bad...but they all hold true to their Beliefs...that's for sure...and as for Santa...that would be great...but doubtful.

Glad to hear Dana is ok and trying to stay sober.  It was the alcohol that was the cause of all his problems here

Dana was the first to welcome me to the PA family and since then we shared some good times on the phone.  I talked to him just last week and it was good to share some laughs with him.  He has some good skills and a heart that makes him give to a fault.  It did not take him long to learn how to make some very good hunting points.  Those of us that he has given to appreciate him and wish him the best.  Sometimes ole man Fate can deal up some realism that can be a hard lesson learned and if that's the case here then all I can offer is for all of us to encourage him to get well.  My opinions, to often expressed, have made for some tough and awkward times times for me and that's true for Dana.  Sometimes life can be a bitch!  A/Ho Pokie

beautiful work. ive been talking to him and i think he can do it.  ive had plenty of arguments as well as good times with him , hell i think i was the one who banned him from the site the first time. if he can use that stubborn , tough yooper attitude with me , beating the booze will be easy.  ;D

Talked to Dana and he is doing better but now his hands freeze real fast in the cold.  His life was saved by the guys that found him but this experience might also save his life.
