I'm jealous Roy. You are old enough to be my uncle, right?  :bigsmyl:

Looks very nice..
This morning I had the pleasure of removing a tick from my belly. Was playing in the woods yesterday in the 65 degree weather.

Any tick removal north of the waistline is no biggie. It's the southern ticks you gotta worry about. Growing up on LI, I've pulled more than my share of ticks .... Fortunately they've all been Yankees and no Confederates. I've heard some terrible stories ... Nuff said.

Heading up to the mountains this morning for the Pa buck season opener tomorrow.. Staying in another buds camp.. Taking my 15 year old nephew along, hoping to watch him kill his first deer. I've killed enough, it's his turn..   :)

Good luck Roy (to the nephew of course.)

Drinking foreign beer and looking forward to my flight home tomorrow. Can't wait to finish those two yew bows. One in time for my Dad's 70th in two weeks and one to my poor swap recipient hopefully even sooner.

Is that your new boo Roy?
The node spacing looks fantastic!

Yes that is the new boo, and the node spacing is great.

Cantalopeboy, no it needs shot in and I can't pull it, well I could but it would hurt like hell. See the orthopedic Dr again tomorrow. My guess is an MRI then surgery, because something just isn't right in the shoulder, and I don't want to aggravate it further.

Send it my way, I'll have my daughter shoot it in for you. Just make sure you include safety glasses.
