knowing Killie for the short time we got to hang out on the Rough Mountain hunt, she is having a ball.
good luck girl looking forward to the stories when you break camp.

Killy, I have a feeling that this will be a very special hunt for you. Can't wait to hear your story.

I just wrote an update, clicked on the wrong button on the screen, and wiped it all out. Too tired and too busy to reconstruct it just now, but I promised an update today. So without the embellishments:
Killy and camp are in good shape. She saw deer, and what might've been a small young deer or a coyote, but couldn't get a good look before it disappeared. Had a little snow, but it warmed up and was melted / rained away.
I'll try to reconstruct the full version tomorrow.
Best to all, C.

Hope her time in the woods goes better than mine. We're having some real unstable weather out here now and that probably is making things interesting for her.

I know how much Kathy looks forward to this every year, just being in the woods does her alot of good, like us all. Good luck Killie and have a good time.
Now where's the update Clark!!!

Know that will be a pleasure for you, motormouth - too bad you and Killie won't get to cross paths again while you are there. Hope you really like MT by now.

Headed out to Center of PA to do some small game hunting and just relax.
Tell Killy Dear that old Doc said, 'Hey!" Can't wait to see you both come Spring at B'mo.
Killy embodies that true spirit of nature that find pleasure in "just being there" that many of us could emulate more. She'll have good pics for sure when I get back next week, I'll be lookin for some updates!

I hope camp is nailed down today and Killie is hunkered down on the lee side of a big stump. It is windy in them thar hills! Wet leaves and big winds, maybe she is stalking up on one right now
I hope it is a successful week in every way.

Good luck to you too, Doc Nock - it'll do you good in any case, buddy.

All the best to Killy. If she shoots like she did at ATAR, I suspect there'll be a deer down soon. If it happens to be 5 miles downhill of the camp, I hope is just 20 feet from where the car is parked!
