I will be bring up some guns to show and plan to get some hunting in. I am looking forward to the talks by Steve Smith, Del Whitman and Christopher Smith.

I can't make it but I loaned Del both volumes of the Parker Story this summer. Damn I would love to attend.

What a great time that would be. I had the privilege of being Dave Tatman’s guest at the Ox Bow club for some fly fishing and hunting. Here’s some memorabilia of that adventure.

The OxBow is great. I believe it's just turned 100. My downstate neighbor is 1/3 owner of the club

That is correct, John. We celebrated 100 years of trout fishing and bird hunting from the OxBow Club this year. I will make my fourth trip this year to the club in a few weeks for grouse and woodcock. It's an eleven hour trip from southern Kentucky, but worth every minute.

Looking forward to seeing some of you at the NBOC and retiring to the Oxbow Saturday night.

I am heading up there this morning. I'm stopping by Bachelder's on the way to pick up a
gun.

Wish I wasn't on grandpa duty at a soccer game in Cleveland.

Sorry I haven't gotten pictures of last weekend posted yet, I got home to 300 acres of beans ready to harvest. It has been a long week. The North Branch Outing Club is a very unique lodge that a step back in time. Every where you look in this wonderfully restored lodge are antiques and pictures of hunting and fishing from years ago.
Most importantly I got my first grouse on Friday.
The Tail Feathers Meeting on Saturday was well attended and a good time.
