Didja bring your lawn chair to do a Primitive Skills Hunting Seminar, too?

Good work getting out and representing our sport, John.  I really appreciated and applaud your missionary zeal.

Thanks jw been working all morning on the homeless shelter project. Plates are the theme this year. I reached 70 plates out of 100 today. I should finish up tomorrow. Tonight it's back to the historical museum for more knapping.

You can really dish it out, but can your back take it?  Go easy there, big guy!

Congrats on that fine deer John, looks like he was well fed on that Iowa corn and beans all year. Very cool that you were able to take him from the ground with a stone point. :) All the pottery work and the primitive skills demonstrations are impressive as well, looks like there is no time for boredom around your place. :)
