Your welcome. They are fun to shoot. I put hay bales on the edge of the woods and we shoot at soda cans, plastic bottles and stuff like that. Good Luck.

I sat on the tail gate of the truck and passed out candy, I probably should have sat in a chair since I had to jump down for almost every little princess or doctor that came by cuz I was up so high, oh well. The girls each have a half of pillow case full of candy, I see my pant size going up with all that damn candy in the house.

Woo hoo piece and quiet. I hope they are both okay.
put the candy in the back of the truck so you have to climb up to get it (1 piece at a time) You'll burn some of it off that way!

Lisa what would ya want for making me something kinda like that, but for my garden tractor? Ive been wanting to get someone to do a "case 446" with "custom" underneath of it to put on the backside of the fenders. Something that kinda looks fancy, and something i could just take into a stoke and get a sticker made out of it, or maybe something i could cut out and paint on....


Dan thats a neat crossbow, I would take it to a sports shop and see what they can do for ya.

As for those flower pics, I always loved the sunflower pictures, they are such a neat plant, and they always make pictures great!

Alright, now you've sucked another story out of me. Back in the old days (case of Miller Lite a day) I usually had one of those wide bottomed insulated metal coffee cups on the floor of my Vdub between my legs. Of course it would have beer in it. I had Velcro on the rear of the phone, Velcro on the center of the steering wheel. You can imagine the rest, hit bump, phone drops straight down plops into cup of beer that was full as I was just moving the car out of the driveway and hit a bump rolling down the hill. Phone went into instant vibe and would not stop until I got the battery out. Took it as far apart as I could, ya know SIM card and battery, blew it out with air and let it dry in the sun for about 6 hours. Motorola I-850, it survived but the # key never did work correctly again. Do you suppose that is why you are not supposed to have open containers in your car?

, sigh........no more. July 15 for the beer....10 weeks yesterday for cigs. Life is not as much fun anymore.

Life many not be as fun......but it will last a lot longer now Mark! My Dad is 73, and smoked 2 packs a day for over 40 years before he quit 15 years ago. He has COPD now, but gets along just fine without oxygen, the Doctor told us straight out if he would've never quit the smokes, he'd be dead already. Congrats on quitting and staying off!

Dan you can definitely get the Limbs replaced on that from an archery shop. Looks like a new fun toy for you! I'd love to get one, but it wouldn't do me much good in Arizona, you're only allowed to hunt with a crossbow if you you are disabled. I am very into archery.....just spent $1300 on a new bow this year, that's a whole other section of "PMS" for me

Im into archery too, but I havent had a bow for quite a few years now.

First time I picked up a bow i was a natural at it. Very enjoyable to go shooting with one too.
Hell I enjoy shooting a recurve just as much as a compound!
