A flint cut? Come on now...

With school group season starting again down at the fort, I've basically lost my help here. It's apparantly more fun to go and "work" at the fort than it is to actually perform labor here. haven't seen Chester in quite some time. Steven had claimed he would work two days a week once school groups started back up.

So yesterday, Steven calls in sick - well, sort of. He was calling from the fort, which means he was able to go "work" there. His illness that kept him from coming to work here? A flint cut. I kid you not, a flint cut as an excuse to not come to work. Even 4 year old Caleigh doesn't let a little boo-boo keep her from doing stuff.

I have to come up with a new plan to get some reliable help that really wants to learn gunsmithing and not just hang out and play in the off season for the fort.
