Title: My Wife is the BEST!!
Post by: Bud B. on December 26, 2013, 01:58:00 PM
I had no idea she's been listening to my rants and general talk about archery and related topics. So to my surprise I opened these gifts from her for Christmas:

 (http://i45.photobucket.com/albums/f94/Equismith/101_2883.jpg)

A dozen arrows from Suzanne St. Charles.

Saxton Pope's book,

And my wife apparently had a lengthy conversation with Suzanne about my admiration for archery history and the contributions the archery pioneers have given us. Suzanne must have been moved to include a signed arrow from her late father, Glenn St. Charles.

I am floored and humbled. My wife truly is the best.


Thank you Steph and Suzanne St. Charles Hammond.

Great Christmas gifts Bud!  Your wife must be in tune with your interest in archery to pick those things for you.  I have  2 matching arrows signed by Suzanne and Glenn in my collection and they are very special possessions.  Good stuff!

Pretty neat gift and although I have to agree your wife is exceptional, I would disagree with you whos wife is the best.

I think in this case we can agree to disagree   ;)

I also like the added touch Suzanne gave!

There is no greater gift from God than a spouse who truly understands.
