Just wanted say 'wow and THANK YOU again' to Carl and the crew who put this on .. what a cool event. I didnt get a chance to swing a hammer, but I still enjoyed myself. The Trackrock Campground is waaaay cool too. The cap it all off .. I won the custom carved knife handle raffle. Yeah, come on!

Thanks Wallace. Glad you could make it up (tolyau'dhavfun). Pays to be a "newbie" ....... hard to beat beginner's luck.
Now what you going to do?
 
I hated missing it. I promise you that.
 
Well, we took turns burning your's and House's ears all weekend. RLo did have one of your knives on the display table with some of his leather wrapped around it....so you were kind of rep'd.
Shame you could not make it.
