Looks like a fun weekend. Looks like you need a sheath for your hatchet. Be careful with that I would hate to see you slip and cut yourself, you are too young to be lipping around for the rest of your life.   :banghead:

Something I forgot...The stump shoot is in our back yard. If you look close, you can see our home across the pasture..I'm lucky to live in such a cool place

Cool!  Which one of you is Huck and which one is Tom?  What kind of generator are you running the lights on your boat with?  I bought Reed a little pond prowler and I am thinking about putting some light on it.

Gregg, I'll pm you some info tomorrow.....COOL story about this pic....Sky and Mason left the house early to go stump shooting and I followed them about 2 hours later. About 400 yards from home, I came up on these 2 cool looking Mushrooms and took the pics of them..The white one had a groove cut into it which I thought was strange. When Skyler saw the pic tonight, he was the reason for the groove, an arrow groove...Don   (http://i89.photobucket.com/albums/k209/rickybob_2006/CIMG1414.jpg)

Gregg,
It is a 10HP generator, I think it was 5,000 watt ? Has 6 lights running off the front of the boat. I also think Capt Conan changed the bulbs to a little smaller wattage too to keep from pulling the generator too hard.

Thanks again Capt Conan, Don and Skyler for the invite ! We are truly blessed to get to spend time and memories with ya'll !!!   :clapper:

Looks like a great weekend. I don't think you boys spend a lot of time playing video games.
Way to go Don and Jimmy you obviously spend a lot of time with your sons. You're bringing those boys up right.  :thumbsup:

That is great. Looks like a blast and the smiles say it all.

On a serious note though, you really do need a sheath for that hatchet. I'd hate to see something happen to a rising star.

THX everyone! we're lucky to have 2 boys who love it as much as they do....On the hachet, it has an edge protector/sheath made out of plastic. If you look in the first pics you can see it. It was destroyed on this trip and Sky's already planning a leather sheath...Nobody noticed Skyler's pointy finger on his right hand. That was a trip to the Doc on Wednesday night and it involved a knife and a Turkey. We do try to teach them to be safe and they are for the most part..They both have all kinds of cutting instruments, and THX for looking out for the Boys... Don
