    We'll miss you Chaaz. We wish you a speedy recovery and look forward to hanging with you soon!

    Definitely will miss you, if I even make it to that hang. I'll put you on my list of friends to pray for concerning medical stuff. I hear ya on the shooting the other side. Elbow injury long ago means if I shoot archery I go South paw which means I aim with my weak eye.

    Take care and Merry Christmas to you and your family!

    ===> Thanks Tim! Luckily Mrs Sky and daughter Ewok will take some time off to assist with my recovery. I just hope I retain some vision in the eye. But even a Firesteel only needs one good eye to use! Lol!

    Looks like I'm officially out for this hang, I have work the whole weekend. Good news is that you won't have to pull my car out this year. Maybe next year I'll set the tradition.
