A few years back, I was at Highland Hardware in Atlanta for their annual spring sale. I was totally engrossed in picking out a Gransfors broad axe and didn't notice someone walk up next to me.

"Well, with Mother's Day just around the corner..."

I look over and Roy is standing there holding the biggest axe in the place. He was there to give demonstrations on traditional tools and methods.

I still laugh when I think of that.
