I agree, there are TONS of guys walking around that look just like you pappy! I think your mixed up Ed.

Getting closer fella's. Maybe just maybe we got all this rain out of our system and the skeeters will be their usual well  behaved selves. Last year was the worst they've been in my time at the shoot. Most years there are little to none.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

I might have been mistaking Chris, but this Pappy look a like had bare feet and blue jean coveralls on,,,,,,,just saying.

BTW, as part of the build area would you mind If I brought a couple of deer hides up to work on brain tanning or just making raw hide. 

I've never done either, and I know that the guy who looks a a lot like Pappy will be there, and he knows a thing or two about tanning hides.  I may be able to pick his brain if I offer him up a beer or two.

 I'd ask the "real" Pappy, but I know that I couldn't bribe him with a non Miller lite beer.  lol

We may not have skeeters this year so we've ordered a pint jar of wood ticks from Tennessee just in case. Plan to turn them loose in the bus. Hope they arrive on time!! >:D

We've just had a hatch after the weekend rain.  Can't go outside without long sleeves.  Going to pick spray up for the fogger tonight.  We got 'em thick in Perry, MI.  Do ticks eat mosquitoes?  If so, bring a jar for my house.  Maybe the lesser of two evils. >:D

Keep yourself hydrated with plenty of Miller Lite Matt. It makes the skeeters happy and extends your blood supply!

I agree Rocky!  Got one going now while I fog the yard for skeeters.  One hand for the fogger, the other for the Lite.

Well I'm bringing a pump sprayer for the skeeters and just one can of beer,  "but it is a 5 gal can".

I brewed last Sunday,  so the beer will be Ready at the end of the month.  I decided to brew a double batch and  bottle a case for the auction.  Hopefully the club will make a little money off of it.

I also will be bringing some staves to sell or barter and a couple of hides to work on. 
Can't wait!

Planning on being there Saturday. Have to get in the feed line! If the bugs are bad, I'll stop early and sit around the club house. Can't wait to shoot my sassafras bow on the course, what a blast to shoot! Ol' KH did a fine job on that one. :)
