I'll be running up on Wednesday morning the first week! Can't wait!!

Those were the greatest hunts and comradery. I sure do miss all the excitement...tippit

Me me me.....I'm going week two!!!

Jeff, if you ever want to make the trip again and you can make it up to VA, I have a ride for you.  You were there the first trip I went and I haven't missed one since.  I figure if i didn't get eaten on that trip, it won't happen. 

I still remember Bowdoc sensing I was a bit "anxious" and he told me, "if they get too close just say 'Boo!'  They are more afraid of you and you are of them."  That was the trip where I shot a bear at 4:30, decided to stay in the stand until dark, and later I had two big boars come in fighting and the smaller +250 lb boar spend 2-3 hours with me at 5 yards and under... the bear that stood up in front of me and his head higher than the stand while I was sitting there 6 feet off the ground.  He was staring at me and clacking his teeth about 12" from my shins. 

I later told Bowdoc, "Remember when you told me to just say Boo and they'll run off?  Well, that didn't work."

He looked down, rubbed his chin for a second and then looked up and said "Yeah... that sh#$ never worked for me either", then he laughed and walked off.  Wish he was still here too! 

I love these trips!  Lots of great memories and great folks!

Never had an experience like that again, but always pack extra underwear!

Fellas,
Since it has been a few years, don't forget to make sure your passport hasn't expired.

Rainy afternoon here, so I spent it mounting and sharpening broadheads in preparation of week #2.

You will be ready John.

Good luck guys.  Hopefully the smoke from the wildfires won't be an issue.  Be safe.
