Thanks again!

Thanks for the updates guys.  I've never seen Shrewhaven, but I love the UP.  Had a bear hunt up there in October.  Awesome country.

Looking forward to the pics Ron.  

I know that feeling of packing up and heading out.  I too always look back.  It's sad leaving, but the memories linger and soon the anticipation of the next hunt starts...

ShrewHaven Gang -- glad to hear everyone made the long trip home safely. What a fun week, lots of hunting,great stories, jokes and laughter, and of course the Food, but most of all, time well spent with our wonderful friends. I'll let the gang share  acouple of the highlites of the week - some real funny stories that will be re-told many times at ShrewHaven. As Cindy and I passed the gate on our way back to our place on Sat. night, we were both thinking about the sad feelings of the last night in camp. Can't wait till next year,a week with the ShrewHaven gang is always of our best week of bow season.

I keep thinking about Cosgrove doing the "Goat herder shuffle".....

It certainly was a whirlwind trip for me, but 3 solid days in camp wrapped around travel time is still like a sip of nectar to get me through till next year. The food was awesome as always(has anyone ever had a stomach ache for 2 hours after eating more lightly battered, deep-fried bluegills than 3 men should have?). The laughter is always cleansing for the soul and the rewards of finding well shot deer after a tough trail for your best buddies is a great feeling (Greg N. made a very good shot on a big old doe that just didn't want to give up the ghost) Greg, Ron and I finally sorted the trail out and the hugs told the whole story. I bagged a doe from the Tressel stand my first morning out. One of my favorite things in camp is getting a deer in the am and doing the follow-up chores followed by a late afternoon spent in the cabin by myself shooting all the Shrew bows, prepping dinner and enjoying a good glass of wine or bourbon while waiting for the boys to get back to tell there stories.  I truely feel blessed to be a part of such a great group of sportspersons for so many years. We all take our ribbings with a great dose of laughter but this is the real deal folks. This group is top notch and the place we share is remarkable in it's simplistic beauty and the people that make it so much more. We should all have such a place and camraderie in our lives.  I'm a wealthy man because of it.  

Thanks guys!! I'm already looking forward to next year.
