Re: (...)
Just got a text (and picture) from Ron, so we'll have plenty of venison again this year. We're planning to make some sausage from it since we grind quite a bit. I'll post our activities....

Quote:
I always will remember,
'Twas a year ago November,
I went out to hunt some deer
On a mornin' bright and clear.
I went and shot the maximum the game laws would allow:
Two game wardens, seven hunters, and a cow.
I was in no mood to trifle,
I took down my trusty rifle
And went out to stalk my prey.
What a haul I made that day.
I tied them to my fender, and I drove them home somehow:
Two game wardens, seven hunters, and a cow.
The law was very firm, it
Took away my permit,
The worst punishment I ever endured.
It turned out there was a reason,
Cows were out of season,
And one of the hunters wasn't insured.
People ask me how I do it,
And I say, "There's nothin' to it,
You just stand there lookin' cute,
And when something moves, you shoot!"
And there's ten stuffed heads in my trophy room right now:
Two game wardens, seven hunters, and a pure-bred Guernsey cow.

That's funny, Labs! I'll show that to him when he gets home.
Sorry, Daphne, no details yet. He just sent a text that said "got one" and a picture to go with, but the screen on my phone isn't very large, so you can't tell much from it.
I'll have more to share on this later.

Yup! And they stay in a motel and eat out all week! Add tp that out of state licenses. But, this is something that Ron and his dad have been doing since Ron was 8 or 10 years old, before he could even get a hunting license. It's their week together and very special to both of them. They actually start talking about it during the summer!
