Legs and back are about half repaired from antelope trip. All guns cleaned and Suv unpacked, laundry done.
NOW, packing for a weeks tenting in the Pennsylvania Allegheny Mountains, a part of the Appalachian range. In Pennsylvania they have what I call an "olde Fart" season. Over 65 year olds can hunt does (with a draw license) during the black powder season using a modern rifle or pistol. So now packing for a week tenting, might get son and grandson for the last 2 days. Should be cold 28 oF at night high 50 during days. long range forecast says some rain possible (flurries). So, means lots of stuff...truck will be full. I might end up hunting squirrels for a few days as I can't drag a deer more than 75 yards, downhill...and everything in the mountains seem to be up hill LOL. Years ago, all lightweight to carry foods were expensive; today supermarkets have lots of lightweight stuff (Minute Rice figures in my diet) although my tent will be close to truck. As always, got a Dr appointment Monday at 10am, then take off. Love tenting and this is basically a loner trip. last year had two massive elk walk thru my camp site.

Bear, your the man!!!!!!!!!!
It sounds fun, and a plus to have son and grandson. All that AND be able to shoot stuff, that's very hard to beat.

Yes, We got cow tags south of Wright. All 3 of us have tags but I'm not sure if Austyn will be able to go since she dislocated her ankle playing Volleyball.

Good to see you IBD.
It was a good hunt. It took longer than expected but I ended up getting a cow.
