Is it time yet??
« on: January 23, 2017, 08:30:16 pm »
I know we always seem to do the PITH after the 1st of the year.  I was wondering if we were ready for it??

Funny you are bringing it up I was thinking about it just the other day. The last two years I organized it and we started late Feb. - early March.  I suppose if we are ready to make it go it's about that time.

It's run so well the last two years...I hope we have a really good turn out for 2017.

So...Is it time yet?! ;D ;D ;D

Is it a bit early to start with the weather being so cold that many won't be wanting to chip?

Our due dates have been in May previously.  Might be fun to see some points given at the TN Classic, which will be here soon.

What do you think Don?

Yep.  It's the PITH or point in the hat.  Coming soon, bjrogg.

I tell you what Tower, since you are so excited to do a trade, but are lacking a trade partner.  I guess I will have t get my stuff out and make a couple points for you. You dont even need to do the PITH.  Just throw your and my name in a hat and call it quits.  6 of mine for 6 of yours  >:D >:D

If it's now I'll have to tap out. I'm working six days a week, 12-14 hour days on the big sinkhole that was in the news a while back and going to Brazil Feb. 4 for a couple of weeks to work.

I think it would be better if our knapping community came to a consensus on the PITH. 
With that being ssaid Nathaniel, you know I'm always up for. Private school trade, Scott, your are More than welcome in it.

I'd love to join in on this but I still suck at knapping! This is the year though, gotta make it happen. I've cracked out a couple of points, nothing to right home about though.

Eddie, what sink hole?? Where you at?  There was a big sink hole here in Michigan not long ago.
