Da Mail lady I owe!
« on: December 06, 2008, 10:33:00 PM »
She has hiked up my driveway hill the last two days. A mean snow storm today also. Not sure how to make it up to her, but    :notworthy:   thanks    :D   today's deliver was.    "[dntthnk]"   This mint Kodiak Special
 
 
 
 
 
Naturally LH 66" 52 lbs dang perfect. Suppose to be a 57 is it????? I strung her up, only false shots so far. Tomorrow we cast some shafts with her.

Brent

Sweet bow! I always feel badly for the delivery folks too we have a long driveway off a poorly maintained road. Seems they always have to deliver out here in -35 degree weather to. Last year I made a bunch of chocolates just for the UPS, FEDX, and US Postal folks, and I always offered to let them warm up before heading back out.......seemed to make there day brighter.
Just this Alaskan's opinion

Sweet bow Brent! I'm betting you are going to really like how smooth and fast it is. Not sure about the vintage, but that looks about right. History/Collecting forum would know.

BowDoc is in the middle of redoing one just like that for me right now.  Well, almost just like that - mine has the shelf on the correct side of the bow!  ;)  
Looks like you've got yourself a beauty there Brent!  :thumbsup:

Brent,like Rick P said....leave her some chocolates or cookies.

I do similar work with my job, only for the airlines (lost luggage). It sure puts a little sunshine on my face when someone thinks enough to give me a little snack when I've gone that extra bit to get to them (especially on Christmas!) It reall makes you feel appreciated, even if it's the smallest of gifts.

Oh yeah, SWEET bow!!

I didn't say that.

Very nice bow, Brent. I would rather have that than cookies.

She still has the spirit, this is the second group with it. I stopped then, she needs a new string. It don't look bad, but I think its 50 also.

Thanks Killy I did think of you, when I got home. And my wife told me about her trudging up the the hill for the second day in a row. Thanks for all you do for us. The day before, she delivered me a Dickies Fire Ball. She is so good to me  :D  kinda like my own Santa Claus   :campfire:

Dunno what a Dickies Fireball is, but this time of year I wanna get it on the doorstep ASAP. Somebody might want to rewrap that bad boy and send it to their sister in Oregon.   :D
