"Bad weather Joe"???? What happened Joe? You didn't leave my good luck up on Henry Mnt.?
Sounds like a great trip. I like your account of the hunt but am anxious to hear Irene's. That is, what she can remember.  :rolleyes:

Greg, Ms. Irene was a true trooper, and I don't think she was that drunk.  But that muscadine wine my buddies make is about 14% alcohol and can make you REAL MELLOW!

Great story, looks like a fun trip.  Thanks for the write-up!

I think I gained a pound or two just reading about all the great food.

Sounds like a blast was had by all! I know I greatly enjoyed just reading about it! If it wasn't for all the snakes, it looks like a great place to hunt. Thanks for bringing us along, Mike.

Fred, I am sure she was just a bit mellow but it is a good opporotunity to tease her just a little. Sounds like you really put on a non stop spread for those guys. I am extremly jellous. I sure hope Joe was taking notes so I can get a taste of some of that good food when he comes to my camp. Actually it is Arlo that has the invite but if his owner can't make it Joe can bring him.  ;)

Sounds like a great opportunity.  Thank you for sharing.  The tradgang family is an amazing group of people.
The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.

I think my new plan is to just follow Joe around at a distance and pick up the crumbs...

You guys all know how to make a good time no matter what    :thumbsup:
