In the darkest part of Sherwoods glade, in the thickest part of the wood, there are those who say, can still be seen, the ghost of Robin Hood.

I wish I could make it, but it's a bit far to travel. This does sound like a lot of fun.

Re: Archery Tournament in Kentucky
Alas, my work computer blocks Facebook, but I'd love to see some of the photos (also, going by Mirimaran's post, the privacy settings may be set so people who aren't on your friends list can't see them). Any chance you can copy some of them to the forum?
