St Jude's Paradise Hunt 2007
« on: October 24, 2007, 05:19:00 PM »
I'd like to thank Fred Gimble and Mitch Walker for there generous donation to this hunt Charlie Lamb and I offered up.

Rob DiStefano and Vance Brewer will be guests of the hunt, and Bob Walker is going to cook and help out around camp in any way he can.

We saw 90 deer last year on this hunt, and expect the same this year as the weather has broken to cooler temps, its been raining for 3 days now and the forest floor will be great for stalking, the rain and wind no doubt brought down some acorns from above, and there's a lot of hogs on the property this year.

I'd also like to thank Mr. Sam Roberts for allowing us to donate this hunt at The Paradise.

Its gearing up, and I'm in a holding pattern at the airport awaiting the arrivals of Mitch and Rob.  Bob is just south of the airport buying groceries, and will also be in a holding pattern with me soon.  Vance and Charlie are holed up at JC's house this evening and will head south early AM.

Tomorrow morning Fred will fly in, and we'll pile him in and we'll be on our way.

Stay tuned....this is gonna be a doozie!!!

I'm packing now , have to leave for the airport in 7 hrs. Came home tonight to a busted water pipe in the basement , at least it happened before I left . I worry about things going wrong when I'm gone leaving my Goodwife to handle things. I guess I don't worry too much though ,  cause I keep going . Looking forward to this , Fred

Been waiting for this one to get going!  I'd love to be a mouse in that camp and listen to the stories each night.  On second thought, maybe not - anything with four legs and hair is in trouble!

Sounds like you've died and gone to heaven with all the vittles Vance - and the hunt hasn't even started!  But you know the rules around here - we need pictures!  :readit:

To be lucky enough to spend the day with the Coots' family is awesome. Add Vance and Charlie in the mix, and it's "priceless". You cannot buy food that good, anywhere, at any price!   There's a lot more pic's to come...Vance and Miss Kim took several.

I ain't kiddin ya'll, that deer Don and his family brought was some of the best I've had. Really enjoyed our time as one big trad family at the dinner table Wed night, only thing better than that fellowship is more of it.

The stumpin was grand with lots of laughter, even Papalapin made it up to finally meet Charlie in person after years of being fellow Jack Howard bow fanatics.

Sky, in this case, no news is good news....no cell service in the swamp so if they ain't called, they are there.

Go get em fellers! Wouldn't surprise me if there's blood on the ground already....

I was pleased and honored to get a phone call from JC inviting me to dinner,  I told him I would have to get permission from the "boss".

When I asked what the occasion was, he told me that Charlie Lamb and some other Trad Gangers were in for the night on there way to the Paradise.  When he said "Charlie Lamb", I said "this one of the rare occasions where I will ask for forgiveness rather than permission".  However, the "boss was thrilled for me that I got to go.

It was great to finally meet a guy that I have considered a good personal frind for years, but had never met face to face.  He is a bit uglier tha I had pictured him, but the same great guy I had gotten to know.

I always enjooy the great Southern hospitality at the Coots place,  JC is a great guy and Miss Kim is a charming hostest.

Thanks for the invite.
