Raptor
« on: August 22, 2008, 11:59:00 PM »
Got to spend a couple of hours with Ted at Raptor while passing through Hood River, Or., a couple of days ago. Ted and his wife were great folks, and he is fun to talk to and their shop has all kinds of really cool historical archery stuff. It also has one less of Ted's bows since I had to relieve him of a beautiful sinew backed selfbow of his design. He also recommended some of the best Mexican food I have ever eaten, about 3 blocks from his shop. If you get a chance to visit, I recommend it highly.

Your visit was a real pleasure Pat , I enjoyed sharing all the old items with both you and your wife , look forward to sharing a campfire sometime.
Glad you enjoyed the Taqueria, the chili rellenos are the best arent they?
Sometimes I forget all the things here in the shop as I see them day to day , when I get to share them I realize all thats here.

Well, with gas prices the way they are...  :D
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.
