By the way Killy....you will be getting a form from Team Pink....its a small questionaire in reference to your chaperone Mikey.

Answer all questions honestly whether you were satisfied or dissatisfied. I know Mikey went to bed early and not sure if he gave you the grand tour on his tricyle but we will have a talk with him.   :eek:    :confused:  

Thanks for the chips...we had enough Gin in the room but it was nice of you to leave us what you didn't finish from your half gallon....uh-oh...the truck from Canada arrived...Nite everyone   :archer:

No we weren't hunting high fence bunnies, even though at times one would of thought so. This shot is when we were coming out of the second to last push on Sunday along the airport fence this is the push that i saw the unbelievable amount of rabbits. Chris(Bowspirit) had somehow found the mother load of burdock the stuff that is partially obscuring his orange vest. He is a very nice young man and it was a pleasure to hunt with him.

"Hey, can someone check and see if I really have burrs on my back?"  Chris not believeing he had tha many on him.....

Joe next year we will have to send Mikey off to "Official Team Pink Chapperone" training......I've got a few ideas, beginning with

"How to Make Yourself Look Like you're in Charge When You Are Less Than 4"11" Tall"

Oh I believed y'all...you couldn't reach your hand back there with out pulling back a mound of burdock. Just figured it was a sight that had to be seen...

Atta boy Dave...Team members not afraid to step up to the plate and take action   :thumbsup:  

Maybe a weekend up in NH with you and your fellow officers should straighten the little guy out....  :eek:  

As we all saw in the room, even though it was a SHORT stay, he can become incorrigabal...red doo rag and all.....  :confused:    :rolleyes:

Woo-Hoo!
My stuff just got here! Looks like all of it, too! Shawn, sorry, I shorted you a dime on the postage.

Can't trust me, I guess.

Wow, been sitting in my office for someone to post and this is all we get.. :readit:

Can someone photoshop Killy's picture in the group picture? My thought's are opening and expamding up the center and adding her pciture 4x others to the center making her the focal point and the rest of all as the frame sort of like a collauge around the special guest.   :bigsmyl:

Really it's been darn slow here today LOL

Curt    :readit:    :thumbsup:    this thing will be retired soon we need some pics maybe a little video and a story

Okay I was one of the drivers driving along side Curt on the 2nd greenhouse push when we were coming out when of course somebody yells BUUUUUNNNNNNIIIIEEEEE he manages to race past Curt heading straight on but my arrow slipped harmlessly just over his back.I did try my darndest to stab him with the end of my LB as he raced by but that was a no go too LOL sure was exciting even without getting the bunny

Why is it that Aram always has the coolest hat at the bunny hunt? I had a chance to do a little talking with him, the more I get to know him the more I like him, his kids are great also.

Aram is a good dude, it was a pleasure to talk to him.I too liked his hat and thought of sneaking it off his head and telling him it got pulled  off on BriarBack Mt.His quiver is pretty cool too!

You and Hunter too, Mikey. We weren't out of New York yet when he asked why we had to wait 363 days to do this again, and he was still talking about it when I got home today.  I guess he had a good time...........

Before I forget, to all of you that interacted in any way with Hunter or any of the other kids for that matter, thank you.  You all made a great impression on him, it was neat to know I didn't have to worry about him or who he was with.

So, again, thank you all!!!!!!

Yes Killy, it was very nice to meet you and I'd like to say thanks again for the arrow I'll throw it in my quiver from time to time along with my Bernie arrow and take ya for a walk in the woods.Thanks again

Yea Aram's a good guy,I think Ru has grown 1 1/2' since they started coming LOL I still remember him chasing that bunny the first time LOL It was nice to meet Aram's daughter too she kept an eye on Sonny for me when we did that very last set of drive's.He seemed like he should sit those out he hunted hard both days besides I think the girls spoiled him

Lol David! He didnt even say the title....now Killy is gonna bug out.  :D  
Did anyone take those osage seeds? Or did someone really pay Chris to drink that slurry? Ack...
We need to figure out some sort of get togther mid way between bunny hunts...if Team Pink is involved we could call it Drunken Stumpin. Who is Team Pink anyway?   :confused:  I looked but didnt see any secret handshakes....and almost everyone was wearing pink, might not have been visible, well you get the point.

On a different note. My wife just cruised through and did a double take on the total raised. Then she said "Wow, thats awesome!". I guess she wasnt listening when I told her earlier this week.   :rolleyes:  Anyway, I agree. Glad to be part of it. Cant wait for the next one. Whats the count Hunter?  :jumper:
