With one PERSONAL exception, this year has been a great one!

What is the exception?  Losing my Great Grandfathers powder horn in the Crawford MountainS during the muzz deer hunt.

Hopefully someone will come across it some day and either use it, or try to get it back to me.  There are a couple of ways for them to find me.  The horn has a scratching that says “A. Zundel” on it along with his birth date and year of passing.  There is also a scrimshaw micarta tag with my squigglie symbol on it. That scrimshaw work was done by my good friend White Trapper many years ago and I really hate to have lost that along with the horn.  Bummer dude.

So, anyone with an imagination should be able to look at that and say…”Hey, it looks just like a bears butt”!  And go searching for just that…A Google Search will pop up this site!  And then we can get together and I’ll give them a HUGE reward and life will be good again!

Or they can Google “A. Zundel” and that search will put them onto Abraham Zundels web site and will also point  to this story!  Good plan!

There is hardly ever a year that goes by that doesn’t include the losing of someone near and dear to your heart and this year had several.  Rest in Peace all of you who went on ahead.
