My son Nick with THE MASTER...Monty Browning

Here he is learning from some of the best.  I told him that if he makes a head, I WILL hunt with it this year.

Here js Nick with "Bowmarks".  Remember Nick a few pictures ago with him in the knapper station?

Here is a closer pic, and yes, he DID make the arrow head.  They drew on his rock with lencil, and told him where and what to do, and here is the finished product...

Thanks, Mike!
I wish I were there instead of here, but I gotta do this work thing. I think about Kazoo at least once a week. It was one of the funnest things I have ever done. I keep thinking of all the stuff I would like to explore that I ran out of time for last year.

What a super time your young man is having! Making usable arrowheads at his age! And a whole lifetime to seek perfection, should he pursue it.

Past my bedtime, I am off to dream about the campfire in Michigan.
