Allen, that was a huge havie!!!    Did anyone notice the green and black thing hanging from the ceiling in some of the indoor shots - my bow was not the only black widow in camp!!   I still don't know where that spider came from, but it greeted us each day as we inetered the building.

Hey Mel, I brought that spider for camp mascot. It's been hanging in my garage since haloween and I thought a big Tarantula would look good in vamp.

Curt,

You gotta come do the Sweat with us some year! Bunch of us guys would love to share camp with you. All you would have to do is get south of me someplace and your more than welcome to ride shotgun!

That was fantastic!  Thanks, guys, for giving me an idea what goes on at at a sweat.  Hopefully, I'll be able to make it next year.. Once we get fully settled in the new digs, and I get myself back into some semblance of "shape", I hope to be able to spend the next 10 or so years doing adventure hunts with my buds!

I'm also really glad that you young guys are able to do this now, while you can really "go at it".  Store those memories away until the time you can pull off a good yarn along with a good cigar around the campfire!!  I'll bring the scotch!

I thought we'd finally secured you last year Curt. Sorry to have missed you. As always, you are welcome anytime. It would be great to have you with us. Thanks to the rest of you for the comments as well. Off to scout for the evening hunt now. CK

Wow Allan, that is a beautiful documentary of your hunt!  I enjoyed every one!

Anyone notice how in most every shot of the indoor fire pit CK is closest to the flame?  :p

CK is not as tough as he looks we had to drag him out of his cosy little camper every morning at about 11 when it had warmed up some glad you enjoyed the photos
