Hunting Trip





Well as you all know it is this time of year that Troy and i pack everything up in some form of vehicle and head east to Stan and Beaver's for our annual deer hunting trip. This year we took the Bronco we all fit just fine even the dogs. We took a ferry over to Seattle and from there the trip was on. We made ot over the mountains just fine.




As we were in route we found out that there had been a small brush fire that ran up right to Stan and Beaver's front door man i would to have liked to see that. Saturday, October 11th was opening day Troy and i had decided that i would take the first outing to see if I could bag my deer. I had no luck in the morning even though i had a few chances at a small buck. The next day Troy took his shift when the Bronco's starter failed, this did not prove to be a good morning what so ever needless to say he did not have any luck either. .


On Monday i chose to go out back where i have been successfull many times before. I have a secret spot that at about 9:15 every year the deer seem to accumulate. i however had a successfull morning.
All in all we had a good trip even though we had some car issues but hey what is new I am a disaster when it comes to vehicle luck as everyone knows. Even though Troy did not get his deer this trip he has an Elk tag for a cow in Margret down by Mt St Helens, he is really excited about it and he should be able to get his elk this year. let's all cross our fingers i would really like to have some elk in our freezer this year.
