One for Ty
« on: June 18, 2017, 01:51:13 pm »
Took the grandgirl to softball practice. Took along some things to occupy me while the young ladies practiced.
One of items I took was the bow finishing up that will donate to MoJam auction.
A 6-yr-old, Ty, was also at the practice.
When he wasn't racing around the park on his bicycle, he hovered near my chair asking question after question about the bow. He pulled it couple times but, since I had not brought along an arrow, didn't get chance to shoot it.

Because he exhibited so much interest, I made a cane arrow and will gift it to Ty at Rylie's next ball game.

Let's see how much fuss he makes about a "launching platform."

That's a good looking arrow I bet he'll have a big smile on his face.
