That was a tough story to read but it's a beautiful to look at. Funny how pain and beauty so often go together.

Sweet sweet bow, bj. And touching story to accompany. Oftentimes we don't appreciate fully how well life has treated us.

Thank you Upstate, I guess opposites attract.
Thanks Joe, it really is one of my all time favorite bows.
Thanks Knoll, I try really hard not to take my good fortune for granted, but it is still easy to forget all the same.

Thank You George. It does my soul so much good just to pick up that bow string it and let some arrows fly. I really am glad my cousin ended up with it and let's me shoot it from time to time.
