I've been messing with cedar and chundoo shafts this winter and have finally come up with the right spine and weight for my bow.
Yesterday when I got done working, the sun was still shining a little bit and the water from melted snow was really starting to pool up in the street in front of our driveway. I stood out there for a little while in a flannel shirt pounding away at the ice to try and break away a little route for the water. I don't know how warm it was yesterday afternoon, but it sure was nice!
We only have 4 acres with our small cabin, but I feel the same way Vesty. There are times when stand there in front of it and just cannot believe how blessed (in many respects) my wife and I have been.
Looking forward to spring and being able to get back up there!
