Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

[Jack Black]

Good morning Guardians. Glorious morning here in coastal southern NC - just 60 miles from Myrtle Beach. Already in the 70's. Unfortunately it will be getting cold by next Monday - cold snap coming. Oh well, I'll enjoy the warm temps for now. Not much planned for the day but we've been invited for dinner tonight at a friends home. Looking forward to it. Had my Senator in the pocket yesterday and I had forgotten what a cool pattern it is. The file work on the back spring is a nice touch too. Think I'll have with me today and tonight too.

Oh no, I hope I haven't infected you Bob!

No, just being closed in because of the weather Jack. 🌧

Jack, I've got some kind of bug, too. Here's to praying and hoping both of us improve quickly! Having Gidge back will help the psychological realm.

 

[SteveC]

I hope you guys feel better soon !

It sure is. There are a couple of servers at our favorite Mexican restaurant that we’ve known for years also. They know exactly what we want and when we want it (you have to have time to enjoy your margarita and some chips and salsa before ordering). I don’t like the “get in and get out” mentality of some servers.

Really is great when you get to that point.

Hope it's better soon Bob

Really sorry to hear this Jeff, hope you're back to full steam soon brother

I hope you guys feel better soon !

Thanks Steve, at least I know that the headaches I've been getting are probably not down to my fractured skull!

Happy Birthday, Mitch!! (Tomorrow I guess - it's the 25th here!)

They’re living in the future in Australia.

Evening all,
Check out this cool fun present Kristy got me
To hot to play this afternoon 106 when he came home after 4.View attachment 2471100

Nice! We got a similar set before Christmas (same brand, I’m almost certain, though ours didn’t come with throwing stars, and now I’m feeling kinda ripped off…). We had it set up in the basement when everyone was here for Christmas, but it’ll be much better for outdoors in the summer.

Thanks a lot guys, I did enjoy having a good sleep for the first time in a week, but unfortunately, as soon as I had posted here, I fell asleep again. When I woke up, I was still feeling groggy, but figured some fresh air, and a couple of cups of Charlie's coffee would wake me up. I went into town, and bought a few groceries, but then fell asleep again as soon as I got home. While out, I'd also noticed that my nose was a bit stuffy, and that my sense of taste was slightly diminished. A couple of friends had mentioned there were some strange viruses going around, and so I had a look online. Turns out that there is currently a huge spike in a new Covid variant here, and I have most of the symptoms - difficulty sleeping, feeling heavily fatigued, brain-fog, a stuffy nose, a change in taste, a cough (which I have anyway)! I also had a sore throat for a few days about a week ago. The fatigue, which is just like you'd expect with a case of flu is annoying, and the difficulty I've had sleeping, but the other symptoms are very mild, and if I do have a virus, I hope I'm soon back to normal!

Jack, I've got some kind of bug, too. Here's to praying and hoping both of us improve quickly! Having Gidge back will help the psychological realm.

Hope y’all are both feeling better soon!

This morning I made a voluntary trip to the DMV. I found out yesterday (after seeing them on another vehicle) that Minnesota started offering “blackout” license plates at the beginning of the year. I’ve never liked the light-blue-and-white Minnesota plates, so I went ahead and renewed my plates early so I could switch. Thankfully the DMV wasn’t too busy. Ebony ‘18 Guardians knife with me today.

My first lambsfoot, a 4" with ebony covers from A Wright & Son. I really like the colors in the ebony covers. It's a little stiff when opening but is breaking in nicely.

Congrats Kalsu, nice ebony covers.
Welcome to the porch.

Knife is gorgeous, but that cake looks like it's made of the same stuff as the one Jack Black brought back from Lanzarote!

 

[Fodderwing]

10 minutes ago, a large parcel arrived from Paul Jakeywax31 , with some extremely generous contents

That's a mighty nice surprise Jack! Well don Paul!

Great horn Dwight; looks like you have a user too.

Fabulous photo of that sweet Lamb buddy

Beautiful, - that is one VERY nice Old Lambsfoot my friend- wow!

Great shot and lovely Stag !

Much obliged fellows! That blade has a whole lot of wear. Whoever owned it and carried it was a master sharpener. The blade is almost perfectly symmetrical.

Where did you get a photo of me with hair. Thanks Dwight

Hey mate we may be kinfolks! My name after all is Mitchell!

 

[Kalsu]

Congrats Kalsu, nice ebony covers.
Welcome to the porch.

Bob

Thank you sir, glad to be here!

 

[Fodderwing]

Nice one!

Thanks David!

Don't have it in my pocket today, but it's always on my desktop and I'm always fidgeting with it.

Beautiful bark on that HHB.

I agree. I had to drive from Austin to work and the “proximity fuse” engaged about 15 minutes from the office. You have to concentrate

That is hilarious.

Had a very nice lunch kristy, Lorna & her boyfriend. . Had a few schooners of black (tooheys old).
Kristy was was happy to get in a couple games of pool.

Delicious dishes Mitch!

Good morning Guardians, I had a great night's sleep last night, thanks to some Moscow Mule therapy

I'm glad to hear you slept well finally Jack. Sad to hear you are infected with another virus though! I advise more Mule....

Good day mates.
Happy Australia Day for our friends down under!!View attachment 2471158

Beautiful image Bob! Reminds me of your wonderful gift of coffee beans!

Gidge found her way back in pocket this morning.

That looks like incredibly dense wood on that beauty.

Vince, I tried that last night with some 120 proof Wolcott Rickhouse Reserve with a splash of water -- it was only partially effective against my sinus cold and headache. Maybe I should have had another one.

I don't have a cold but I'm going to try that tonight. I need the practice...

Great first Lamb, Kalsu ! I doubt it'll be your last!

This Charlie Lamb just seems to hop into my pocket almost every day!

Congrats and welcome ! That's a nice first Lamb, looks like it could be a relative of my Lamb Stripey
