Glad to hear "TIMEX" is ok. Someday you'll run out of things you can do to that bow.   :)  

That is a beautiful picture. I've been taking a few like that around here this week, only differance, I haven't lost or run over anything in the process.  :)

glad it worked out ok for you.

this reminded me of the time i did the same thing. after a hunt i got back to the ute and leaned my bow up against the side of the ute. got 5 minutes down the road before i realised i forgot my bow. i know that exact same sickening feeling when you think you have run over your bow. i thought i would have run over it for sure since i had to do a 3 point turn to get out of where i was. got back there and it was laying there unscathed. i couldn't believe my luck.

your not the only one who has done it curt.

My favorite "Timex" commercial of that time was the one they strapped a Timex to the bottom of an elephants foot. After he stepped on it and the guy looked at it and was asked "What time is it", he replied "Time to get a new Timex"

Glad it worked out for you and the ole gal is still ticking..

I also agree with the beautiful colors. Around here that is unusual but the dry  and mild year has blessed us with a magnificent "Indian Summer"

Wow, thats some serious stress on you right there.  Glad it held up.  I did that with a couple fly rods once. Drove away in the vehicle and forgot I had layed them on the ground. I got lucky too...

Happy for you and Timex.

What a good experience to share...  Glad to hear it all ended up positive.  I found it most interesting that as sleep deprived as you were to have forgotten your bow, that you could still appreciate the colors of the canopy!
