Thanks again Gang! Yes, Dad seems to be improving daily. It did take a day for the soreness to set in but he's back to being honery as ever. The Doc's and nurses don't let him rest but about a half hour at a time so he seems to stay tired. He said he really didn't want calls for now due to his being so tired. He has expressed his deep gratitude for all his extended family's well wishes and prayers. It's kinda overwhelming to have such support! Thanks again! CK

CK,

Sky and I were very concerned when we heard but glad to hear things are working out.  We had a long talk last night while shooting and I thought he said a funny thing I'll pass on.  

As we were talking about your dad and you as well as dads and sons in general, he said he thought yours would be ok.  We talked about sickness and cancer but he kept insisting that he thought yours would be fine.  I finally stopped and asked why he was so sure.
He said he was sure with the way you were God would need someone down here to keep you in line.

Quite an impression you've made!

Prayes sent.

Hang in there.

We cant shoot without him bringing up bunnies or our trip.  Being there and a part of his first kill will insure a valued place in our family history.

I cant tell him the devil made you do it because he thinks the devil is his younger sister.

I hear that he's just about ready to go on a waterskiing trip...if it wasn't for those danged doctors! Up and walking around, his usual razor sharp wit and most everything else intact   ;)   He says, "Keep the prayers flowing boys, they are making a difference."

Good to hear of his steady progress. Y'all keep each other in line, now! Thanks for the email, CK.

The air here feels like fall, now. The woods are rustling with flustered squirrels as they hustle up their stocks of the bumper acorn crop. I have the weekend off, cool and dry, yet still warm with sushine. I am fixing stone heads to the shafts that I stained and sealed long ago enough to forget that I had done so. As I go about these preparations, I think about all manner of things, hunts and critters and the way the world turns and people in my life. I know another who is battling cancer, and I can't help but think of those whom I have lost to the damn disease. I have never met your dad, but know him a little through this site and the way you live your life, Curtis.

As all of life is connected, and as all of it comes from the Creator, I know that these thoughts that run through my feeble mind as I seek out the best sinew, or sight down the length of an ash shaft are picked up by the One Above, and so I try to keep them worthy. These are prayers, and though informal, I consider them to be as frank and honest as a prayer can get. And so, I hope that it can be made so, that the path for your father is straightened before him, that the sinews of his body are made clean and fine, and give him good strength. Let him be released into your home environs complete with a fine, sharp head and just enough fletch to keep him flying down the good red road. These are just little thoughts, the prayers of a fletcher, and I thought it might cheer you to know that they go out in your father's name, in an everyday manner.

Curtis, you already know that I've been praying for you and your family since you confided in me over the summer. I'm so glad to hear there is positive news coming out of the major surgery. If you need anythng at all...you know that...

Mr. Kellar, hang in there. We're all pulling for you. The power of prayer is an amazing thing. Hope to see you back on your feet next time I come to Texas. Take care and don't hesitate to holler if you need anything.

Ohhhhh no he didn't! Did he just call him "Mr. Kellar"? Dang....it's on now!  :rolleyes:  

I called him that twice....he let me get away with it once....but the second time? Well, let's just say there won't be a third.

I called him that, too. I think it's good to rile up the old forts now and then.

Sweet prayer Killy.

Fast healing Gary but enjoy the TLC as much as you can. Sure did enjoy our time together at Carta Valley last winter. The greatest treasures are memories and you star in some of my real good ones. See you again in a few months.

I drove up to Houston yesterday to see Dad. His spirits are great and he's doing better than anyone expected. He does like to talk about Boluses(inside joke). You'll have to ask about them at the next campfire. Dad was already talking about being back in our camps by the new year. Well, that may be a big push but I'm certainly welcoming the possibility of at least having him back in camp by Texas Sweat.

If any of you guys buy the Tradgang DVD you'll find that much of the vidoe was shot by my Pop. You'll certainly hear his witty remarks at each and every one of my "bearly missed" shots. Nothing like your own chearing squad to always be there to ribb you for the bad shots. LOL!  :D  

Dad should be around a computer by Tuesday or Wednesday. He is walking more and more each day and will reach the public computers in the surgical waiting area very soon.  :campfire:   Thanks again for everything! CK
