Way too nice to give back, too!  :archer:
Long, long afterward, in an oak I found the arrow, still unbroke;
And the song, from beginning to end, I found again in the heart of a friend.

See you the 26th, what time do you want to meet up?
The essence of the hunt for me is to enter nature and observe+ return safely occasionally with the gift of a life taken.

Doh!  What was I thinking?  (Answer: I wasn't)  I can't make it that weekend guys.  That's the birthday party weekend for my twins.  Sorry.

Soon they'll be old enough to go on these things and hopefully it won't be a choice between the two.  I was looking forward to that cube venison too.

Ron I didn't know you loaned out morrisons!  Where do I sign up?

Any of you are welcome to try out my Morrisons. You just have to do it while I am present!

I learned a little something in all those years before you were born!

Talked to Chris last night and he is excited to share the property. Squirrels will be shot at on this one,connecting is another matter.
 So far it looks like Ron, Adam,Chris and I are definitely hunting. Anyone else? All welcome. Its a large piece of property with lots of different cover.
 Think potatoes/onions grilled will go with that cubed venison, Ron? Any other suggestions? Should be good eating and hunting. Early and mid afternoon seem to be when the squirrels are most active so mid day lunch/shooting will work well.

I just got back from the range, and ALL the critters are feeding! The squirrels were out right up to dark.

The stars and planets will have to align, I'll have to convince the missus' it's a good idea, and I'll have to get a bow built that won't break, but my eyebrow is raised and it'd be good to see some familiar faces.  For whatever it's worth, count me tentatively in.

This should be a good one. Will miss you there,Killy.
 Hope someone brings a camera, maybe for hero shots or maybe just to post some pics of the terrain-interesting to this big hills local.

Might be able to make this shindig...what's the directions from the south?  I work in M'ville, but live down near Dixie Bowmen...don't know the territory up there too well.

So how far is this place your hunting from Harpers Ferry, WV?

This Montana boy will be in harpers ferry for work and if its within reason maybe I can sneek away with the rental car.

Daryl, Chuck posted a map with where we are meeting at a Sheetz. Check it out.
 Clint- hope you can make it.
 Adam, I haven't seen any rabbits there but there is alot of briars and a cutover that may hold some.
 Chris killed a coon there this fall so carrying 1 BH might not be a bad idea either-think that coon, fox, squirrel and rabbit are still open.
