Thanks again, Ya'll.
Bruce, I think you are right...Dal not only saw it, but was likely laughing at the fact that I was melting in the heat while he was lounging in paradise. Ya gotta love that guy's sense of humor!
Tippit, your little caper was something to behold in the skinning, quartering, caping department. Holy smokes!!!! Thank goodness I was paying attention or I might have lost a couple of digits while working. Your blade redefines the term "scary sharp" !
Now I just need to find a few native North Dakotan critters to keep me busy and all will be well. Temps will be in the 20's on Friday morning, so ya never know....!!!
