I'd rather be in the bush..homesick blues...

Al,
That offer of a wilderness elk hunt still holds true, be it this year or next.....

Some of us have done what you do overseas far away from home for long periods of time....For me it was another time, another place and a different kind of conflict.  But the emotional drain is similar.  Hang tough my friend, it eventually comes to an end....then we hunt, we fish, with family and friends, old and new.  Stay focused, stay in the hunt....

[hunt it]

Beautiful little gal you have there Al. My daughters eight and enjoys the hunt as well. Keep safe and focused, time will fly and you'll be home sooner than it seems. All the best.
