Since I have posted here I guess I should introduce myself. I am called Fancy. I got that name from my liking of long fringe. As the 1830's missionary women wrote of the mountain men at rondy, "They had fringe dripping from every seam of such a length that it became a burden to carry." I have been shooting black powder for 30+ yrs and have done rondys for a fair spell. I am a recent member of AMM and I think I held the distinction of having been their oldest pilgrim for a while. I do Native American style brain tanning(no chemicals just brains and water) and this winter I am trying my hand at brain tanning 3 buff robes, again no chemicals. I had a nice Lady from The Women of the Fur Trade show me how to do buff robes last fall. Many thanks to those fine Ladies. | ||

Welcome to the campfire, Fancy. Since you're an old hand don't be surprised when others start asking you questions for help. Meantime just get comfortable and make yourself at home. *Young guys should hang out with old guys; old guys know stuff.* | |||

Scarhand, know the area well. Lived in Poky for 5 yrs in the 80's. My AMM sponsors were members of the Poison River Party. The gentleman who taught me to brain tan years ago lives in American Falls. As a matter of fact some Native Americans who bought some of my hides called it Fort Hall type brain tan. Also lived in Soda Springs many years ago. | |||

Welcome, Fancy I'm down in the Boise settlement proper. We're a couple miles from Barber Park, up by where that powerline fire was a few years ago. Sparks "I thought when you said you chased tornadoes, it was just a metaphor." --soon to be ex-fiance in Twister | |||
