Long bows and snowshoes
« on: February 26, 2007, 08:37:00 PM »
Joe and i went out over the weekend did a little snowshoeing and shooting. This was Joe's first time out on the shoes he did good only fell once, we took a three hour walk i was ready for a nap when we got back it never phased him a bit.

Days like that are worth more than anything. I soak up each adventure that my family and I go on no matter how large or small it is. Good for you and your son!  :clapper:

Israel,
I did meet Noah at the bunny hunt he's a great kid, I'm glad you brought him with you and hope to see both of you at next years hunt  or at some other event in the future. I like to spend time with my kids when ever i can and when it's in the outdoors that is a plus. I remember when Joe was a baby i would take him in a wagon that had big pneumatic tires and pull him with me through the woods on scouting trips while his sister walked along. Start them early and often because they will be on there own at a blink of an eye.

Jim, I can't agree more with Ron & Steve. Watching you & Joe, & Israel & Noah from a distance at Shawn's brought back many happy memories of myself & Greg many years ago. BTW the memories are still building for us . . it doesn't end. What a pleasure to see it happening with you!!!! Enjoy & cherish every minute. They really fly by!!

Those are some fine young men you're building there!    :clapper:

Looks like a magical outing.
So great to see Joe's smile again, he's such a great boy...
That pine forest in the third picture looks enchanted.
