Old Willie

On 10/29/08 I lost old Willie. Someone had given him some poison. It was expected that he would die a early death since he was a rover but not like this. I sat with him until 10:30 p.m. when he past. There was nothing I could do for him except keep him warm and as comfortable as possible. I will miss him. He was a good boy and a good friend and a family member. I have got to think that he is in a better place chasing rabbits and some one is scratching his ears. I thank God for having had him in my life... Pappy V. said it..........

Hello world! Well I survived another deer season opening week end this one past. Weather was perfect with lows starting out in the mid 40s and by Tuesday morning it was 25 degrees! Saw several does and young bucks but no shooters. There were some nice deer killed with the heaviest being a buck that went 185lbs and a doe that went 148lbs. A feller that hunts just a few miles from us shot a 10 pointer that weighed 243lbs!!!! Big old buck deer!!!! Guess I will just have to go back again in a couple of weeks to see if I can catch me a bigun. Until later.....Pappy V.
