LOL, thats the thing I suppose, getting there in this weather and trying to find someone to go with!

And I don't wanna hear any whiny stories about how people couldn't make it because of the weather(Right, Donnie? [8D])-- seeing as how I left out from Jackson this morning at 7:45 in two inches of ice and have been driving through it all morning... There's still ice and sleet to each side of me as I look out my car windows right now at 70 mph...

Greg, you got that right!! There's no crying in deer hunting!!

I'll see you Sunday, Greg. Looking forward to shaking your hand finally.....That is, if I can find you.....

OK, I just pulled into a McDonald's here in Springfield after driving the last hour or so at 40 mph... You'll catch no grief from me Don if you don't make it -- it's terrible driving conditions right now out here. Hopefully, this will clear up some by Sunday.

If try and come, better come to theBowtech boothfirst thingas I might try to clear out early if it takes me as long to get home as it's taking me to get there...

I may have to have Pat or Dan give me a shoulder massage when I get there; this has been some pretty tense driving.

You guys please be careful out there. Driving on ice is no joke.

I am heading up Sunday. Hopefully the roads will be better by then.

Here in Bloomington the roads aren't too bad at all. The snow seems to be to the south and east mostly. Should clear up by this evening in IL. (hopefully!) Be careful out there.

Don't look like I'll make it. Right now the local roads are horrible, thick ice everywhere. Besides I'd have to drive myself. Good luck to everyone going and be careful.

Ahhh man...you mean I can't win again? Can I trade the shiney blue one you gave me in on the new color? I am not much of a target shooter, so the shiny blue really doesn't doo much for me. But you will feel good knowing that I have kept my bow even though I did not like the color. I mean really, I could have sold it or traded it for a better color, but it would have cost me some to do it!! I will stop in to meet the new guy in the booth, I met you other 2 yahoos when I got my new bow and then again last year.

I should be there sometime on Saturday, I will make it a point to find Todd this year. Don't go walking away from your booth!! I expect to get my signed copy of the new video while I am there!!

It sure would be nice to have a nice camo huntingnet hat to wear, the only hat I have is orange and I hate wearing an orange hat out in public. But I will wear my nice long sleave shirt from last...if I remember. It has huntingnet down the sleeve.

So if you see a fat dumpy guy wearing a camo JEEP hatwith a blonde wife and 2, possibley 3 blonde kids in tow that is me. Slap me upside the head and say hey!!

You guys are killing me! My Mom lives in Bloomington and I grew up in Macomb. I have been going to this thing since it started in Peoria. I would really love to be there this weekend, but I have to work. If you ever think of starting your own business, don't let anyone fool you with that "make your own schedule" crap . I hope you all have a good time and those of you who are driving any distance have safe trips. I look forward to seeing pics.
