Well it looks like I'm taking Faith to Denton Hill. JC left her in my care after the Bear Quest...probably cause he knew I couldn't shoot a left hand bow and therefore she'd be safe :knothead: Anyway I decide a lady like Faith should really have an escort...so I did up some knives for her :goldtooth: See ya at Denton...Doc

Well Denton is my social high light of the year. Camping on site is what makes it so special. Early morning omelets with sliced onion, pepper, mushroom, and bacon...then at night when the crowd leaves there's the campfire & roasted game dinners :thumbsup: Heck this year I know for sure there will be Hunt it--Moose on the grill! So one can always use a good camp knife...Doc

I'm looking forward to my first trip to Denton Hill. I'll be flying solo. If you see a blue F-150 with Md tags and a Maryland Waterfowlers association sticker in the rear window (along with two turkey track stickers) feel free to come on over, take pity on me, and invite me for some moose steak (never had moose before)!
