Chilly Day But We Worked on Bows Anyway

I really enjoyed our Paleoplanet gathering last Sunday. Baby Jack and Baby Quincy both brought their moms and dads. Quincy's mom brought red velvet cupcakes.

I got some help with my whittling from Tom Mahr. He said I could keep the book to finish my rooster that I'm carving out of a branch. He set me up with all the tools I need.  Very generous of him.
Tom Mills came by for a little while, though he was pretty tired from his trip to Florida. Lots of new people dropped by to work on bows and ask questions. Here are some of the photos I took.

I ran into some of my SCA friends as well. They had a practice on the other range. We have a tourney on Sunday but with a 60% chance of rain forecast it may get postponed or canceled. We have arrows to deliver at that event so I hope the weather clears up.

Bowyers Meet in Pasadena, CA

The rain never showed up on Sunday to ruin our archery meeting, of which I was very thankful. I worked on a kokopelli leather patch for my new snake gourd quiver. My friend just got married and she was making a wooden spoon with the help of her husband.

My bf worked on his hickory bow and actually got it up on the tillering tree to make some measurements.

Jon even got the day off from his REI job so he could come to the meeting. I think he's missed the last 3 gatherings.

New arrows were everywhere. Mario's wife received the valentine's arrows that were auctioned off in the Paleoplanet.net auction. She was out shooting them right away.
It got pretty chilly by 4:30 so we packed it in and headed to dinner at my bf's mom's house.

I just found out there is a Pasadena in TX so I guess now I'll have to tag things Pasadena, CA.
