I've got a bit of bad news. I went to the doctor today to see why I've been coughing for a little over two weeks. Turns out I'm in the beginning stages of pneumonia. I started taking an antibiotic and I don't feel bad, but I'm not sure that hunting is a real smart idea.

So what's my plan you ask? Well, I ain't coming on Friday. But I still want to come and hang out with you guys for a little while so I figured I'd come up there around lunch time on Saturday and leave sometime after dinner, or maybe Sunday morning...we'll have to wait and see. I was going to provide a stew Friday night. Does anyone want to trade me their Saturday night meal for my Friday night?

Clint, Sorry to hear that. But you don't have to go hunting if you don't want to. Just keep the fire going and watch a dozen Trad videos. Eat some Killy pie? Some Jerry clams and some of Tom's jerky. Heck, that sounds like a super weekend to me?

Killdeer · « **Reply #63 on:** January 26, 2006, 06:08:00 AM »

You will be feeling much better on Saturday, Clint, and I am still bringing a couple of bows for you to shoot. Bring some arras for 45-50 pound bows. Ya ain't breakin' mine. :p

S'posta be warm on Saturday! In the fifties!

Killdeer

Allright, I'm feeling fine and not coughing anymore...the pox on not coming tomorrow. I'll be at the sheetz tomorrow at noon. I won't be staying Saturday night though, although I will stay for dinner.

See ya'll there.

Kathy,

I'm putting the finish on two bows and with the help of Bob, I aquired a Bob Lee Hunter so if you don't want to bring your bows, don't worry about it. However, if you want to show and tell, well by all means...

Clint

Killdeer · « **Reply #65 on:** January 26, 2006, 07:27:00 PM »

Nope.

I was gonna bring a Morrison and my Jeffery, a longbow and a recurve, to see if you wanted to use either of them. No biggie. I was just trying to do something nice for someone. That's OK if you have something better, think nothing of it.

I'll be fine...

I gotta go fight with the piecrust. How did you do yours?

You can bring your Morrison. Won't bother me a bit. (read-please bring it)

My pie crust is store bought. I didn't feel like foolin' with it. Matter of fact, I haven't started making the pies yet. I'm gonna try to pack and get things ready tonight so I can leave outta hear tomorrow by 9:30. That'll put me at the sheetz at noon or a little before.

Clint

Killdeer · « **Reply #69 on:** January 26, 2006, 08:57:00 PM »

I have two pies sitting ready to go in the oven as soon as it feels hot enough. The crust is from a mix. That's all the pies I am gonna make. I still have to gather clothes and such.

Clint, do you want to shoot a Dakota (45@28") or the ACS (51@26")?

Killdeer

clintopher · « **Reply #70 on:** January 26, 2006, 09:20:00 PM »

Dakota would be dandy.

Clint

Killdeer · « **Reply #71 on:** January 26, 2006, 09:27:00 PM »

I will try not to forget it.
Pies are cookin'. :D

Bob Walker · « **Reply #72 on:** January 26, 2006, 09:32:00 PM »

Bobby's in bed, now I get to start packin! Good thing you got that new bow, Clint, Bobby said he's using his "favorite" bow. Least you won't have to rassle him. We should be there by 12 or a little after. I'll call on the cell when we get underway.

Killdeer · « **Reply #73 on:** January 26, 2006, 09:47:00 PM »

String Cutter · « **Reply #74 on:** January 26, 2006, 10:16:00 PM »

Why? You offering haulin' me around?

Killdeer · « **Reply #75 on:** January 26, 2006, 10:29:00 PM »

Only after you are field dressed.
I was gonna use it for the squirrels.

String Cutter · « **Reply #76 on:** January 26, 2006, 11:10:00 PM »

I's going to bed. I'll recheck here in the morning. Anybody coming at 700am let me know. Or just fallow the direction to my house from Sheetz. "[tunglaff]"

String Cutter · « **Reply #77 on:** January 27, 2006, 01:42:00 AM »

Can't sleep?

Hi KILLDEER :D ,

I'm new around here, well been lurking for a while and following this thread, just wondering how y'all's weekend turned out. Sounded like it was going to be a good time. Hope everyone had a blast
