Joe, A regular retiree short-timer would be getting himself a few tinkering projects lined-up, but you're fortunate enough to never have have to do that, they come to you automatically....hope ya find a little time to enjoy this long awaited retirement.  :bl th up

Tomorrow is the big day for this Drawing, for our members that don't have their names in the hat, Santa is going to drive right by their house. I hope Rondo put directions on mine, it's the one with all the snow on the roof, and all the walk ways that need shoveling....should stand out pretty good in my little neighborhood.

WOW! His very own snow shovel, and in time for Christmas, kinda touches the heart if ya know what I mean.
I betcha he's going to be impressed.
But, ya just may have figure out a way to "power" that thing, or fix it so he can somehow tie his mule up to it.

That was mighty thoughtful of you Joe, I betcha Rondo's going to be plumb pleased.  :laffing

Hookin' that snow shovel up to an ornery ol' mule may be a bit tricky... Now a goat might be the way to go, but those ornery ol' critters like to eat just about anything they can get a tooth into... Not saying our ol' pal Rondo don't have some of those very same traits when we're a passing that jug around in camp, but he can still find his way back to his tent (or get close) without a rope tied around his waist when mother nature calls.  Yes sir, I'm a gonna have to do some powerful thinking here.  :o  :toast :shake

OK,..... Winter Hawk won this Buffalo Powderhorn that has a 48" (and can be extended to 60") woven strap made of super-soft Alpaca wool, with pine butt plug and spout plug.




And here is Flinchlock's ToTW $50.00 gift certificate.



Sorry,.... I don't have a picture to post of the beeswax Thunderhawk1828 won.

My sincere thanks go out to the fellas that donated prizes, and to the TMA members who participated in this drawing. :bow :shake  MERRY CHRISTMAS!!
