Yes - that is where it was.

Here is my Yew bow, made by a local BC resident, Jene ?????? - antler knocks and it sure is a bit of a wobbley limbed bow. The tiller is perfect, but the string is way overbuilt. I'll have Taylor make me a lighter one. The pictures are not very good - sorry - one of these day's I'll have my bro take some.
My 'hunting/shooting fedora' above the bow - made from Australian virgin sheep(yeah- right)

It's turned a bit green over the years, from the ultraviolet.

The Arm-war (not sure of the spelling) my bow is sitting on, was commissioned to be made for and by my Great Aunt Maggie, in the very late 1800's or early 1900's. It is hand carved oak from Southern Ontario, Canada - so been in the family just over 110years, guess it's not that old afterall.
When we were kids, we'd hide in the bottom drawer - about 5' long and 14" deep, 3' to the back of the Arm-War. Lotso f room, for 2 or 3 little kids to hide in.

The Grandfather clock in the back-ground is a 1927 German clock with beautiful chimes, trouble is, it chimes every 15 minutes - so I have not had it running for a while.

My brother has Aunt Maggie's Cherry Hutch Cupboard(all 1" cherry) complete with all 18 or 24? panes of glass original, in the upper doors, except for one pane (4" x 6") - it sticks out like a sore thumb. It is a very large, heavy hutch.
