Mickey "The Ferret" says "Hi"!
« on: January 12, 2015, 12:49:00 PM »
I emailed Mickey last week and he asked me to share a message.

   
Quote
And please tell all my friends at Tradgang that I said Hi, and that I think of them often.
 
Take care my friends,
 
Mickey
He didn't ask me to share this part but I'm going to anyway.  I mean how's he gonna know?   :)

All I have is a full jpeg file. Took lots of deer pics again this year, but didn’t hunt again this season, but still riding the motorcycle. Rode 21 miles yesterday at -1 degrees. Rode 27,000 miles in 2014. Rode to California and back. Had a great time. Always wanted to ride Cal Highway 1 and dip a toe in the Pacific. Mission accomplished!

Thanks for the post John.

Good for him.  Some of my favorite Tradgang posts of all times were the threads where Mickey and others were doing the traveling auction bow collaboration donation for St. Jude's.

Cool!  We tend to email each other when something significant happens in our lives like a grandchild being born.  LOL

That bike looks like a space ship! Much too high tech for a traditional dude! :)

Nice photos, nice bike, nice guy......I miss his posts and his humor! I also love a nice cross country ride on a motorcycle, riding since 1971.

Thanks, John.  The very sight of that name made me smile!  Ah, for the "Good Ol' Days"...

I think I know Ferret from the Honda CB1100 forum.  Would that be the same guy?  From southern Ohio?

I dunno JD, I think he's a rotten old egg and smells funny.   ;)  

I miss him and Diane. Between MoJam and Cloverdale specifically, and trad archery in general, my boys had a lot of good, solid men and women to look up to. They are men now. Good ones. Mickey, Diane and others had more positive impact on my sons' lives than they'll ever know.

SquareHead, that would be the same guy. He's a top notch type of guy.

Funny as all get out, and one of the best dudes ever.

I built my first selfbow with knowledge from his posts. I got to meet him once back in the day and still have one of his floppy rulers!
