just say when! would love to go up early and maybe try our luck at putting an arrow in a hare, i know its a bout a 1 in a million chance but hey that means we have a CHANCE!!! think i might carry the Slammer there next time if ya invite us up again, would be a great place to brake it in. i'll pack a thermos of coffee in with us too.

Excellent! Love your pics

An arrow can only be shot by pulling it backward.So when life is dragging you back with difficulties, it means that it's going to launch you into something great.

I dont think that will work too well. She is just content sitting by the fire. I cant get her to leave the house with all the white stuff on the ground. Must be something about being born 90 miles south of Florida.

Good stuff.  

Love those "Grandmother" trees.  Hereabouts they usually mark an old property line - especially the corners.  There are a couple oaks and hemlocks nearby that are "originals" to when this area hadn't been harvested.  If you ever get io California be sure to visit the redwood stands.  Trees that big just numb the mind.

I was a bit surprised at the amount or lack of snow at camp...only about 2 foot. Most times this time of year it's to the bottom of the windows of the camp or about waist deep....more come'n in the next few days.....

Ken-every time I see a new post from you I know I am going to be jealous!  Maybe not jealous about the temps!
