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.

Word for word what I was going to write.Ours opens up May 1st.I'd kill to have it open up two weeks ealier.

Turkeys are about the only thing we have in Vermont that you can actually take a trophy size animal comparable to another state.

Haven't seen anybody from Missour weigh in here yet? Ours opens April 18th and runs through May 8th this year. I can't wait!
I'm sick of all this white stuff, mud, and slop! It's depressing.

Those nice pics of turkey really help take the edge off though.
