Got up this morning to some ice on everything, but, doesn't look as bad as anticipated.   Supposed to be up to 40 by noon so the roads should be in good shape before noon.   Might even see some sun this afternoon, tomorrow should be
fine for travel.    They are calling for a wintry mix on saturday, don't really anticipate too much from that.   Have had some
good local ads for the show in the local newspapers, should have a good crowd..........Do

Wish I could be there.  Went last year, my first, and really enjoyed meeting everyone and learning so much.  Spent a good part of yesterday (here in New England) shovelling 4 feet of snow off a couple of my roofs -- never got down to the bare roof and its still snowing!

My best to all. Safe trips.

Hey, Hey, Hey.....10 minutes to 3 and the sun is shining.   Went out about 3 hours ago to clear the ice off my car and lo
and behold, nothing but a few drops of water on it.  Looking good.   Will have to leave soon and pick up that drifter from
out west.  Looks like a great week-end...........Don

OK you guys!!

I really wish I could make it to one of these shows sometime.

Allen,

    Please tell me one of those rifles is mine???  Just kidding... I am waiting patiently.  (Well, not that patiently). 

Don and Allen,

   You guys know I live it Arizona, and normally, this time of year, the daytime temps are around 65deg.  Today, however, it's just gotten up to 39 deg @ 1:00pm.  Wind chill is 29deg.  I am freezing my arse off.  No snow or ice (a little rain yesterday), but the wind is blowing 25mph, and my blood is REALLY thin.

    OK, enough whining.   One more question..... I can only make one trip this year..... what is the best show to go to?  I've been to Dixon's once, and would love to go again, but would like to make one of the other shows in your area as well. 

    Besides that...... I miss you guys.  It has been 3 years after all.


In His grip,

Dane

I'll be there Friday afternoon. Haven't missed one yet. Thanks in advance to everyone involved in making this show happen. It's a great cure for cabin fever.

Dane ....
One of those rifles is not yours !! ..... Sorry I just can't help myself !! However ... I need to shape and finish another that I have started and perhaps another ... I have your stock & barrel standing in the corner waiting on me .. and thats a good thing because it never made it to the basement .... once they hit the basement the wait goes on forever !!
So I should be starting it before too long ..... I'll be in touch ....

The weather really warmed-up .... then drop like a lead sinker ... along with wind ... Those chaps form Canada need to keep that wind .... But the good news it's dry ... and looks like a super weekend ..

I'm planning on going down the NYS Thruway from Albany, west on 84, down to 80 thru Scranton. I hope the roads are OK.

See you there, everyone!

I vote for CLA also.  The guys will all be there too.  I really wanted to go to Lewisburg too.  Maybe I can next year.  I think the big three are  CLA, Lewisburg, and Dixons.

The really good thing is , and I don't tell many people , is that it doesn't take very long to make the trip to the basement and get the stock & barrel and haul it to the work studio !!!

CLA would be a nice time to see you Dane ...... and the show is awesome !!!

OK Guys,

I'm going to check out plane fares and lodging.  See if I can manage the CLA show.  August is a @!*% fine time to be away from Arizona.

Thanks!!!
