Swat 2021

[guylaizure]

Jolie, I'm a flintknapper. Good quality Chert/Flint is always desirable. I have about 15-20 places in Texas in Hill Country that I visit when going through, but this time I'm on a mission to make it to Waco without looking for rock. Besides, I'll be loaded with wood and tools that will be just about the limit of what my truck can haul... Hopefully I can sell all of it at the symposium. If not, it goes to Missouri for firewood..... jerry 9in Tucson)

I would be interested in a couple of pounds of pecans.

That's cool! My grandmother grew up in Comanche/Gustine area and we used to go and find flint all the time. Sometimes several (many I should say) arrowheads. I've got them all that I found packed away and when she passed away a few months ago they prob got rid of them all...

I was almost born in "Com-ainchee" as my Mom would call it. She was raised there, and I lived there around 1952-53. If I hadn't been so busy here, I would have already left and stopped in Comanche to visit an Aunt and cousins. Look for either GM Woodworking or Woodturnerstools or even Wood Turners Work Holding Solutions across from Woodturners Wonders. My arrival time will be late afternoon Thursday. ............

That's exactly how my grandmother pronounced Comanche (sp) also. My family lived there a long time up until my uncle Dan got ill and my grandmother had him moved to an nursing home here in waco. My grandmother's dad was a chiropractor there for many years. You mighta heard their name Wyche. Claude was his name.

So when we arrive at swat do we need to go to the registration area 1st to enter?
Also what is this "cash bar" that's listed on the schedule? Sorry rookie questions..

Yes, go up the escalator and get registered. There is a big area where the meals are served and eaten, there are drinks available there after all the seminars end for the day.

Chuck, I don't know if there's a plan. With all the different seminars everyone kinda goes in different directions. We generally all eat lunch together and have a WB dinner tomorrow night. Text or call me when you get here and you can catch up with us.

I arrived yesterday at 6 PM. Today, I've got to arrange things. The organizers helped me with unloading my trailer. Already mu space is filled. I'm glad I got 2 spaces instead of just one. This morning I'll need to unload the truck bed. Man, that's a lot of stuff I brought. I hope to be organized early today.
@Jolie0708, I' have a 8x10 picture of the Woodbarter logo that will be displayed. When you see that, you found me. Hopefully we'll all get along.. See ya! ............ Jerry (in Tucson)
