slingblader Posted May 19, 2022 Author Posted May 19, 2022 OK, here are some better pictures which don't feature my garage as a backdrop.

cmatthes Posted May 20, 2022 Posted May 20, 2022 Efland is really Northwest Durham...or is it West Hillsborough? Maybe East Burlington? Far East Greensboro?? At any rate, I stood upon the hallowed ground of ROWYCO World Headquarters last weekend and always enjoy the sparkles, the fumes and the great company. Git you some of that! I can’t seem to get the Slingblader content to load, so trying this link for you Instagrammers: https://www.instagram.com/p/Cdv_R8MOS63/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y= Meanwhile...I'm putting Stike's artistry through its final assembly, etc. this weekend hopefully: Stike Jet 050422 Spin.MOV

Depending on which end of Efland Stike inhabits, he's either closer to Hillsborough or Mebane. It's rural Orange County, all the same. Definitely not Durm, and that's a good thing.

slingblader Posted May 23, 2022 Author Posted May 23, 2022 We had a big celebration for my Dad's 80th birthday yesterday. After the open house and all the guests left, we had a few more hours together as a family and we presented Dad with his guitar. My brother also got his silver Tele on the same day, so we all posed together with our Buckaroo themed Teles. In case there is any question, I got the short and fat genes in the family. That may be a look of shock and disbelief. Me, my dad and my brother. A little picking and grinning. Being able to share these with family made it all worthwhile.
cmatthes Posted May 23, 2022 Posted May 23, 2022 That is so damned cool! That's a great family moment...

Biz Prof Posted May 23, 2022 Posted May 23, 2022 My band played "Act Naturally" this past weekend in honor of your dad's 80th. No kidding

Drew816 Posted May 24, 2022 Posted May 24, 2022 That's fantastic!! The axes look even better than I imagined they would and the family photos and fun; priceless (truly!). Happy 80th to your Dad and get that Buckaroo on!
Biz Prof Posted May 24, 2022 Posted May 24, 2022 11 hours ago, slingblader said: No way! That's very cool, thanks man! It was an easy decision: 1. Your Buckaroo Tele build project (x 3) finished just in time for your Dad's 80th was just too damn cool. 2. Our keys player is originally from Indiana. 3. One of my bandmates and I look for any opportunity to play a Buck tune.
