Thanks for posting Dave. I knew he made wood horns, of course, but was not aware of all those other great activities.

They don't come any better than Don and Bobbie. Since the day I first met them about 15 years ago there has never been anybody more generous with their knowledge, time, enthusiasm or spirit. I sit next to them at Stanton's, and Don gives me all sorts of technical advice on items up for bid,while Bobbie always generously passes to me the snacks they bring.
