Guys, enough already.
Thanks for the kind words; they really are appreciated. It was great to be able to be in FL even if it meant missing our NE event. Let's see, 70s and 80s v. freezing weather/snow. The chance to shoot 3-Ds in a short-sleeve t-shirt. Getting to hang out on a beach, do some fishing, find 40+ prehistoric shark teeth on the shores of a remote island. Not a tough call.
To be told by my hunting partner and best friend to pick that 'thing' up for a picture. Which happened to be a Portuguese man-o-war; luckily I didn't get harmed. Hey, they don't have those up here.
Met some great people at the shoot and while seeing the sights down near Cocoa Beach/Melbourne, just as I did last year in MT. After seeing the Florida countryside, I've got a healthy respect for ANYONE who successfully bowhunts deer in that vegetation where visibility (even in winter) is extremely limited.
Thanks to DonD and Gregg and TBOF for a great weekend.
