My wife and I just pulled into the driveway. While my email is downloading, I thought I would jump on here. What a great event and what a special organization! I think its safe to say this was as good a gathering as PBS has ever had, maybe even the best and I've been to them all. Another bowhunting family reunion is now history. The hotel layout and service was good, as was the food, although I'm into volume when it comes to meals! I wish we had a little more room for the vendors and to spread out all the items though. The silent auction sheets got confusing a bit, at least for me. The craftsmanship of donated items continues to blow me away. It was more like a fine art display of bows, arrows, paintings, knives, rare books and dozens of pieces of very unique gear and decorative household items. The seminars were all well attended and very top shelf. I especially felt bad not being able to attend Joey Buchanan's turkey talk. I heard a dozen or more people comment it was the best they ever heard. I simply found it hard to be in two places at once! Since the hotel had "Sleep Number" beds, I got the names of a dozen or more beautiful ladies whose sleep numbers seem to match mine....or close enough :>) By the way Terry, I don't know how you snagged Carmen but a ten doesn't match up well with a four. And you need to know she was trembling when I had my arm around her in that photo! Luckily one of the stomach buttons on my shirt didn't pop. It would have put a little kid's eye out. I think the best thing about PBS is the people. What a great bunch of human beings who all think alike and hunt for the right reasons. Where else but PBS will you find grown ups crying when they have to leave a "convention" to go home. That alone simply blows me away. See you all in Nashville!
