Here's just one of my favorites, me and my little hunting buddy...My Nephew Tucker, on a squirrel hunt back in late September this year. We didn't hurt the squirrel population by any means, but I think we solved a few of the world's problems and now it's all good again.
It just wouldn't be fair if I didn't show you all my other "Soon to be" hunting buddy. This is Garrett he just turned 6 so hunting isn't really on his mind at the moment, but it will be soon. This boy is the
Wild One ......even though he's calmed down a bit in the past year, he's still quite a handful. My brother always looks at me and says "That's your Boy!"
I just reply back...."What did I do?"
Truthfully, he's just like I was at that age so I think me and him will get along just fine and he'll come around when he wants to start going hunting with Uncle Chris.
This is a couple pics of Truman Lake Reservoir in Mid-South Missouri. For some reason these pictures just make me feel calm and at peace with myself when I look at them.
This is taken from atop one of the many huge bluffs on the lake and you can literally see for miles on a clear day. This was right behind the cabins we stayed in while down there on a crappie fishing trip. It was probably between 100-125 feet straight down to the water's edge from up here and it was a breath taking view to say the least. I was up so high that the buzzards and hawks flew so close to the top of this bluff that I could just about reach up and touch them. Some of you all from this area down here around Warsaw, Mo. know exactly what I'm talking about.
