A word to the wise - you can only kill them (that's a Rattler BTW) on one side of the street - talk to Tim about that - LOL.

Treat that sweet girl nice, Larry, I met her, and talked to her a few times - she's a keeper, big time!    :)

If I blow it by staying down here the first of the season - I may try to get up there for a couple days later in the season.

I do, Tim - but alas, they show some of those kind of bows the poor "challenged fellers" carry. You know, the ones they don't want us to post pictures of on our trad forum. Sorry. I had posted the one of the four of us with the first bunch of pics. Then I realized your young friend that came the last day I was there (and took over my campsite) was in it and was totin' one - so I had to substitute at the last minute.   :D  

Let me check and see what else I have. Here's tim, prowling the campsite at night - I'm surprised he was still awake (or me either - LOL):

 

Tim ready to throw himself amongst the critters - I think:

 

Another pick of "Snake Slayer", Rog:

 

Justin, "Yep, we ate...":

Yeah..that'd be cool...send them on.
If i recall..... all the tradgangers were in the front with recurves and longbows.....we were torch bearers for  those with no vision. Pioneers in a quest for the less focused.....we were fathers showing our children how to function without training wheels. A guide in the pocosin wilderness, leading those in bondage to the promised land ....onward...onward i say !!!!!!!
Does that qualify to show the pics ??????
Tim
