Hey Robert, I'm home now too. Glad to see you made it home safe and sound. Forgive me for not saying gooodbyes when I left, tell Randy and John the next time you see them too. I was in a one track frame of mind trying to hit the road.

This event was a blast! There were so many things going on and so many interesting people to talk to, I'm still digesting everything. Definitely had a good (and very informative!) time and enjoyed seeing you and the gang there.

My new 200 lb. height adjustable post anvil is sitting in the driveway (that was as far as I cared to carry it tonight). I just put a plastic bag over it in case it rains. I don't think I need to fear any casual snatch and grab thieves! My wife has claimed the curly birch block I bought at the auction for herself, so I have to make a knife for her, I've been promising too any way.

After listening to Chuck Patrick and his wife play music around the camp fire until after midnight last night I have to say I am rather tired and NOT looking forward to going back to work tomorrow!

Glad ya both made it home ok. I just got back about an hour ago, and came home to 5-6 inches of snow!

It was a blast like always.

Ya got one of the post anvils, eh, Guy? I think you'll really like it. They work great.

Jamie, you had a long haul, glad you made it alright. It was a pleasure meeting you, but you know I didn't get to look at any of your work!

I came home to warm muggy rainy weather and mosquitos. Make that LOTS of mosquitos!
