Some of my kids came by for a visit Sunday. Brought some grandkids along. The kids were sort of restless. One of my boys suggests I do what I used to do when they were small and bored. I’m at a loss. He reminds me of how I would tape a rolled twenty dollar bill onto an arrow, then fire said arrow into the National Forest that bordered our ranch. While searching for the prize, it was also a treasure hunt for cool stuff. Kids would usually find the arrow. Not right away though. They would also bring back deer antlers, trap door spider burrows (No good if the lid is missing) odd rocks, old bottles….Prices have gone up it seems. My grandkids asked for forty bucks. I said, “Well, ok”! Off went the arrow….When they came back, boy, were they pissed. I had swapped arrows when the weren’t looking and fired off the arrow I had taped a one onto…
