Thanks, Chris. I like that avatar picture, by the way.

I will probably still want to use the bows (although the auction included only two people shooting). Incidentally, the husband of the couple that purchased the trip died of cancer a couple of weeks ago, so that has made things a bit weird. I have not talked to the wife, but I did talk to the pastor about it, and he said he thinks that she will want to take her grandkids out. I think I'm going to borrow the hockey helmets again for this, with the kids involved.

Also, I will be in Canada from the fourteenth through the twenty-second, and I am extremely busy until then. I fly into STL from Canada at 12:30 in the morning on the twenty-second, then drive to Columbia, then go with my son to drop him off at Springfield at MSU for the fall semester. Going to be a long day, especially since my first meeting on the 21st starts at 7AM. After that, I hope things will slow down a bit, and I can get some bowfishing in. Last week was vacation, so I am backlogged a bit, and a bit nuts right now. Climbed a mountain with my youngest daughter. I've done that with each of my kids when they turned 14. That was probably my last mountain, though. Getting to be too old for that stuff.
