More carnage



Once again, the fun didn't last long. 40 minutes into the first evening on my stand here comes this doe. Didn't see much point in passing up a shot at ten yards! All that kitchen window scouting really paid off....
Becky wasn't overly enthused about the whole operation but Evelyn sure loved it! She was laughing and screaming the while time!

Whammy!



Once again the opening-day-riverbottom-yippee-yeeehaw yeilded results. This year there were six pokey men and 3 canoes. On the second island push Zach and Aaron jumped about 6 or 7 deer, and this was the last one. He jumped from the bushes you see around me, stopped facing me and looked over his shoulder at Aaron. I zipped him in the chest with a full pass through the heart and lungs. Didn't go 20 feet. I didn't even fall out of a tree this year.

Taking Camping to the Next Level







Yep, we did it. We broke down and bought a camper. It will be very nice on those lovely spring Lochsa weekends to have a warm, dry, and comfortable place to sleep, feed and change Jr., and make coffee if it is that nasty out. I might also be able to find a use or two for it during hunting season.... Speaking of which, shouldn't some of you archery hunters out there be posting some photos soon.

Being that I don't bow hunt, I'm going fishing!
