Way to go Randy!

Congrats, Randy.  Now that you've gotten over that jinx, you're probably going to be able to load up the freezer.

Congrats, nice pig.   :thumbsup:
Hunting was hazardous, but at least it guaranteed the freedom of the individual.

There is no doubt that the onset of farming saw the end of leasure for the majority of people, who were destined to toil in the fields.

The season gave him perfect mornings, hunter's moons and fields of freedom found only by walking them with a predator's stride.
