Went shopping with the wife and kids yesterday. So since I was close I stopped at the local Woodcraft store.
Never been there, but went out of my way just to check out the rumor they had a book on building bows, yes they did, the 1st ed. Bowyer's Bible.
Then wandered back to the WOOD!
Thats when my 2 younger boys who were with me, and the employees and other customers started stareing at me?
They say as I was looking at all the pretty "bows" that I looked like I was about to drool, and that my eyes kinda glazed over
I guys they don't all get that excited about seening that many " bows" as I do, and they even said they just saw wood, whats up with that?
Don't you guys see a bow in every piece of wood? I thought this was normal.
Almost ended up on the naughty list the other day too. The wife walked in as I was searching old craigslist.
She asked what I was looking for, said I was looking for people cutting down good trees to get wood for bows. You would have thought I said I was looking for someones elses garbage, she just did not get it. Got the old, better not catch you doing that look( you don"t see here do you?)
Got the same look this fall when I saw a Huge wooden shipping crate on the side of the road. Or at least thats what they saw, I saw a half built free box blind that just needed finished!
Whats up with some people?
