Just got of the phone with James and got the news that he's had a; in his words - "slight hiccup". Keep him in your prayers   :pray:   . He's still as up beat as ever though.
The archer sees the mark upon the path of the infinite, and he bends with his might that his >>--> may go swift and far.

I hope he is doing OK.......
In the beginner's mind there are many possibilities. In the expert's there are few...So the most difficult thing is always to keep your beginner's mind...This is also the real secret of the arts: always be a beginner.  Shunryu Suzuki

Thanks, But its not really that hard to build for a gang of truly great guys, and for that, I THANK YOU, That's not just words.

  Monday I became blind in my right eye(Detached Retina) Now the way I see it is Ive been packin around a pair for 62 years, lost one, Great to have a spare!

  Ive said in the past"I have build so many of these guys I think I can do it blind folded" Well, It is a bit different(I started back to work today)and I am going to be slower for a while, Good news is, I only have to wipe off half the saw dust on the safey glasses, so that speeds me back up..lol

  I will be running a bit behind for a while, Tell I become use to working this way, I am truly sorry for this, But I will catch up soon. Thank you all.   James D. Berry

   ps bows are taking twice as long now, But that means that they are going to be twice as good!!!

Wow James I truly emphasize with you. You have my prayers. I am having some eye problems where I took a 16 penney concrete nail in my right eye and it destroyed some of the retina so I can at least partially understand. It really bothers me when I am stringlining limbs. You have to learn to not trust they eye and double and triple check everything. Anyway God bless and help you, Steve

In certain types of retina tears that lead to detachment, they are totally repairable if taken care of before scar tissue forms.  I hope you have had this checked out.

James,  I really admire your positive attitude.  You are inspiring and a better man than me.  

You have been in my prayers since I talked with you on Tuesday.  Take care.
