Hi, I hope everyone is well. I haven't been on in a long time. Three years ago I lost the job I had been working at for the last 26 years. I started my own company Raven Graphix. Visit my site and check it out. http://ravengraphix.com/portfolio/main.php I'm still doing the collages. http://ravengraphix.com/portfolio/main.php?g2_itemId=461 Having my own company was kind of a blessing because my dad was terminally ill with lung cancer and this allowed me to care for him full time. He passed about 6 months later.

Sadly I had to give up doing the Big Game and Coonhound Calendar. It took too much time and effort for little reward. I didn't want to charge more money for it. I miss seeing all the photos but am thankful for all the amazing friends I've made here while collecting them. A lot of my friends are on FB too.

Please take a minute to say hello! LOVE

Sarge

real big boy for 2 years old. the boy and mama came along for nice race the other day. put down on snow coon track and dogs moved it to brushpile and had the coon. they had enjoyed helping me follow the dogs. caden laughed at me climbing up the pile to get the dogs off the coon.

That is a good looking young houdsmen there keep him plenty leashes, leather boots and hound pups to break.
