        My wife, the 2 kids, and I are going. Hopefully Friday – Sunday, but I may not be able to get Friday off, so worse case scenario is Saturday and Sunday. Either way, we’re definitely going! It’ll be great to meet ya’ll in person! That way you’ll see that I’m not just annoying online. 🙂

            I really wanted to go but it didn’t work out so I bought myself a third Shrew to ease the pain. 🙄 More on that soon. There are several new friends from this site I’d love to meet, while also seeing again “old” friends I’ve met at Kalamazoo and several state banquets but never see otherwise. Here is what I’ll do for you who are going: A secret ceremonial anti-rain dance every day! Lucky bums. dave :D8)

              A new Shrew! Yeah.. I’d be real broken up about that too! 😛

              After last year! We need all the anti-rain dances we can get! 😆

              One of these days, Dave. Would be great to me ya’. 8)

                Depending on the baby, I think I’m headed to Compton on Friday Pat. My Dad should be headed up too. Its getting hard to plan it with a newborn though. I definitely won’t be staying the night despite having several friends camping.

                  Steve Mc– We’d love to visit our mutual hunting buddy and your neighbor Alex at his digs someday, so it could happen. Never toured New England and we could start there and eat our way up to Canada through tons of crab and lobster. Someday …

                      As far as compton, can’t make it, again. On the road making much needed money that weekend. Entertainers weekends are Mondays and Tuesdays. Any chance having compton on those days ;)?

                        I figured you were going since I saw you will be playing in Detroit that weekend.
                        CORRECTION: I thought I remembered seeing that you’d be in Detroit that weekend…apparently I’m wrong. I must be losing it. 😯

                          I’m planning on attending! Last year was my first time and I had a great time.
                          I was planning on being able to shoot my new Shrew at Compton’s…..But Dave P. must have gotten his name ahead of mine! Now Greg tells me not until August 😡 It will be the longest 14 months of my life.

                            I’m planning on going again. Hopefully i won’t have to help hold up the movie screen this year. I still think we should blame the rain on Nathan Anderson. It showed up when he did and it left when he did. HaHa!

                              I’ll be there with my wife and two kids. We’re staying in St. Joe’s- Compton is for me and my son, the shops, pool & beach are for my wife and daughter! Last year was the first time for us and except for the monsoon it was a great time- even took the opportunity to introduce myself to G. Fred and thank him for his books and video that helped my beginning in this hobby/obsession/money pit 😀

                                I won’t be able to make comptons this year because of a bear hunt planned for Quebec. You guys all have fun. Dave you should try to make comptons one of these years, or even Denton Hill. We are going to Denton this year in July. Both shoots are great!!

                                  I’m planning to be there with my wares. Hopefully, I’ll have my same spot right next to TBM. After last year, you can be sure I’ll be watching the weather, but it is usually very nice there in June. It is a great site and gathering.

                                    Due to milage between us, I will be there in Spirit of the Tradional Bow.

                                      I’m going to try to be there Friday, but I should roll in Saturday morning at the latest. That weekend is always a great time.

                                        I am really looking forward to this year’s rendezvous. Fletcher, at least we were on the “covered” side of the tent last year. I sure hope the weather is better this year. The only good thing about last year’s storm was the way EVERYONE pitched in to help.

                                        I would really like to meet any/all of you that will be at the shoot this year. Please come by the TBM booth and chat. I may look busy, but I’m never too busy 😆 to stop and say hello. In fact, most of the time I’m just chatting with other members/subscribers. That is the best part of my job! 😉 Hope to see you there!

                                          Looks like I’m headed down on Friday morning for the day with my ol’ man.

                                          Robin, I’ll definitely drop by the booth this time.
