Well, on the first day of gun season, Kev was up at 4:00 a.m. and left to go hunting in the pouring rain. Yuckadoo. You couldn't pay me enough money to do that. However, I do love having meat in our freezer, and we just cooked up our last steak a couple of weeks ago. So, go hubby go! More power to ya! I'll just roll back over and get a couple more hours of shut-eye!
Anyway, he came home absolutely soggy and oh so stinky. Man - wool is potent when it's wet. He'd been tracking the blood of one he shot earlier in the day but couldn't find it. He's pretty sure it's dead by the several pools of blood that he tracked, but he's afraid that he got out his stand too soon and pushed it too hard. This is a major bummer on all accounts. I hate hate hate when a deer gets wounded or when one dies unnecessarily. Plus, Kev is probably going to get sick AND we have no meat in our freezer. Ah well. Live and learn, I guess. He was pretty bummed. But, back out again today at 4:00. Hopefully, he'll have success this time!
Whenever he gets back, Kaden always wants to hear his hunting stories. Kev is always very careful to say that he hunts to get food like steak and hamburger to feed our family - not for sport just for the sake of killing an animal. Anyway, Kaden has an imaginary wolf friend that goes everywhere with him. The other day at breakfast Kaden said: "Hey, Daddy! My wolf friend shot a hamburger in the road and he was really proud of himself!"
Doesn't make a lick of sense, but we just about died laughing!
