Garrett and I are neither morning people. We couldn't hunt today. After our hunt Friday (getting skunked) he wanted to get out more this weekend. Today I asked if he wanted to hunt tomorrow evening. He said "NO Dad! We NEVER see deer there in the evenings. I want to hunt it in the morning." He walked up to me around 9pm tonight and gave me a hug telling me he was going to bed. I have struggled to get him in the woods much the last couple years. Seeing the fire growing in his belly has been awesome. Watching him pick up on details (like us rarely seeing deer in this stand in the evenings) brings a smile to my face. I still won't push him. Just makes me feel darn good seeing him with a drive to hunt. Proud Daddy moment! TOO Good!

Hanging with my family! Feels great. I do wish there was hunting involved like there was in the past. I need to start hosting turkey day

Back when I was a kid my Uncles and cousins would show up around daylight. We'd get the beagles out and go on a bunny hunt before Thanksgiving.

Those were the days....lot of memories made. My uncles are either dead or 70-80 now. Memories and FUN!....................

Yeah buddy. I'll never forget how hard my dad and his buddies would beat the brush on the morning rabbit hunt. Them guys always set me up good. They where the dogs. Great memories. Crispy clear

Laptop battery is about to die. Got a bunch of my "Black Friday" shopping done. Screw the masses of asses. Think I am hunting in the morning. Then off to work. Let the bozos fight it out in line. Most excited about the "family gift". Sort of for me, but we will all use it and enjoy it. Last year, we added the first TV purchase we had made in 15yrs. We bought a 55" Vizio to our wall. We have been happy with it, so tonight I added a soundbar. $300 soundbar for $160 with tax and delivery. Vizio 54" soundbar with high reviews. The movies, football games, and kids video games are going to kick butt. Maybe one of the coolest features in my opinion is the Bluetooth capabiities allow you to stream from phone or computer to the soundbar. This will be a nice bonus when it is time to listen to some music and we have no way to use our old school speakers.
