Oh yeah! Nice shooting Charlie, a sweet double. I remember you telling me about this land on our drive south this winter and it sounds like you were right about its potential. Good luck in MO and thanks for the story telling.

Great story, and great ending.  Thanks for sharing.  It is a bridge to the start of our season in several weeks.

Great story, well told!
I like how it takes a while for you to spit it out, as we get to sit around the campfire and gab amongst ourselves while we wait for you to come back from the johnny house or whatever.   :D

My internet provider has kept me off line since Monday night.  I was having withdrawals, but on the bright side, I finally got to read a Lamb told story from start to finish in one sitting!

Great stuff Charlie!  :thumbsup:  
And another chapter in the book is complete!  ;)
