Guardians of The Lambsfoot!

I forgot it was Stagurday. I guess this is still part of Tilly's process for assimilating into a new flock... 🤔

The beads are made by women of the Maasai tribe in Kenya's Kisumu County of tightly rolled strips of magazine paper dipped in paint (the one above the nail nick of the stag lamb has lost its paint shell and is now unraveling). The Maasai are notable, for one, for keeping the majority of their tribal traditions intact while modernizing enough to provide valuable assistance to the Kenyan government's conservation efforts, with many Maasai men employed as trackers, gamekeepers, anti-poaching units, and more. Beads like those shown are sold as an income supplement and aid in purchasing medical supplies and other community essentials.
 
Striking pic Will 👍


Thanks, Jack! These quotes were sitting in my clipboard so they must still be relevant!! 😂

Pretty special tube you’ve got there, Will. :thumbsup: Hope you figure out who signed it, so you don’t end up in some Sandlot-type situation. 😁

Thanks, Barrett. I've got it narrowed down to a couple strong "maybe"s. 😂

More grilled steak bone...nice Will.👍🏻

Thanks, Bob. If I could get my steaks to glow like that, I'd go into business!!


Thank you, my friend.

That is some tremendous FC jigging!

Thanks, Dave. Tilly is quite the looker! 👀
 
I miss weekends. Especially Saturdays. But I need the money and I have a job with regular and otherwise quite civilized hours.

Anyway, having to constantly remind myself what day it is keeps me on my toes.

It's going to be a freezing two days here and then back into the 40s.:(:D

I was going to take some pics outside, but the snowbells I expected weren't there, and if there are croci they're under a foot of crusty snow, and the sun went in before I got out, so I took a bunch of pics on my old Carhartt.
I know the feeling Jer, I am always forgetting what day it is lately! 😖 Working today too :thumbsup:

Keep warm buddy :thumbsup:
Looking good Bob :cool: :thumbsup:
Enjoy your day Jack 👍
Thanks a lot pal :) :thumbsup:
Verah nice 🐑 Enjoy your Saturday buddy 👍
Many thanks David, hope you're having a great weekend :thumbsup:
I’ve noticed that Wostenholm and Rodgers after the merger were pretty similar.
Yeah, they had a small workforce by then, so their knives were made by the same blokes on the same bench. Some of them would have even been made by the Richards staff :thumbsup:
Should be a relaxing Saturday. Kids have been begging me for my Chili so I’ve started it. Think we will have it over baked potatoes for dinner.

Got the GL-24 today. Pile side always gets neglected so I took a shot of it.

Looking good in the woods Steve :) :thumbsup:
What a mess! 😲🫤 At least it sounds like you’re getting better care now, which is great news.
Thanks mate, hoping so :thumbsup:
Glad you found a chair! Sounds like a cool one, too. 😁
Cheers Barrett, I reckon it was a lucky find, particularly at that price. Hope I can find time to fine-tune it! :D :thumbsup:
We’ve had some nice warm(er) weather here lately, although yesterday it was incredibly windy out, which wasn’t particularly enjoyable.
I hope things settle down pal :thumbsup:
I hope everyone’s weekend is off to a good start. I’ve spent more time than I’d care to this week shopping around for new eye glasses, but I suppose it’s worth putting the time in, as I tend to keep the same pair for a long time. The last time I got a new pair was just before Eleanor was born… almost 9 years ago! 😁

Afzelia Burl Albers for the weekend.

I hope you can find a pair you're happy with :) I have a pair on currently, which I think I have had about 15 years. They have Memoflex frames, and I find them great for in the house :D Great pic Barrett :) :thumbsup:
Howdy Guardians hope y'all have a great weekend 👍🤠

Nicely shot David :) :thumbsup:
Ace pic Will :cool: :thumbsup:
Really lacking guardians contributions lately…

For today…been carrying it in a slip I had from a dealer. Now, worry free riding in my pocket along with keys, coins, etc 😁

Terrific trio! :cool: :thumbsup:

Running repairs for the youngest.
Good for you mate :) :thumbsup:

Good morning Guardians, I hope everyone is well, and having a great weekend :) I had a full day yesterday, called in at the cafe, met up with some friends in town, got dragged round the museum by Cillian :rolleyes: :D We picked up some beers in town, and headed back to Matt's, but weren't able to find anywhere to eat as everywhere was booked up :( We ordered a takeaway, and watched some football. Matt enjoyed both the curry and the sport, I wasn't particularly impressed with either. Better than Gladiator II though, the movie we watched, though, what an absolute stinker! :eek: We had a few beers, and I went home about 9.30pm, and went straight to bed. I had terrible reflux in the night though, probably the worst episode I've ever had :( My stomach is still feeling a bit sore today, but I need to get on with some work. First, I need to clean my wound. Have a great day Guardians :thumbsup:
