Don't know you, but I like a lot of your posts and comments. Sounds like a ruff going the next few months. Just an idea, but what if someone on OG could set up some type of "Go fund me" and we could get you a few hundred to help. I'm not smart enough to handle that! Time to take care of our own!!!

Steve,

Store all my pot calls in beer koozies during the off season. They offer a great protect to the surface and finish of the call and have never had a problem with them sticking to the call. The koozies also fill tight on the call so they will not move. You can usually find them free at various places, I and my daughter picked up a bunch at a beer festival a few years ago.

Tail Feathers

The cheap route is lots of newspaper to wrap them.  Good luck n finding a new place.

First off I would like to say thank you for the compliments and the suggestion. There was a time in my life before I was saved I was not a very good person at all, I would do what I could to get what I needed, including the occasional con, the problem with me asking for something like a "Go fund me" page is I would feel like I was coning again, that is something God took me away from and I do not want to return to. When I first came to this sight I saw all these great calls and I honestly thought I could never afford them and I stated that, I did not mean anything by it but several people sent me calls for which I am very grateful, but the more I learned about calls the more I found out that yes I could afford some of them and the truth is I felt guilty about those that had given me calls. Mind you I had always offered to pay them for them by payments or otherwise or if they said no I would offer to pay at least the shipping but most said not to that. I felt like I had conned again even though that was never my intent. That is a major reason I do giveaways now, I feel guilty about those that gave to me and I want to in some way give back. For me to ask for money I would feel like I was conning again and that is a part of my life that God took from me and my honor means so much to me now that I just can't do that. I thank you very much for caring enough to suggest that but I would not feel right about that.

Thanks, that is seeming to be a very popular suggestion, I will try to get some when I get paid again.

If your local liquor store has boxes you can get, they tend to be well made with strong sides and bottoms to protect the bottles in transport.  That makes them good for moving.

Steve,

I think I have a few extra beer koozies, how many would you need? They are free at all the craft beer festivals that I have visited so do not buy them.

I have at least 50 pots not I think, seems that way anyway. I will gladly pay you for them, I can't until July though.
