Day 1183

Only stopping in for a quick update. Very tiring weekend, but had tons of fun. Hunting, brothers birthday party, raking, raking & more raking of the damn leaves.

I can sum up the weekend with one very nice picture. If you�re squeamish, don�t go look. But the picture? Popped Zach�s cherry this weekend, so to speak. It was a weekend of several firsts for the young man.

Zach�s first deer. A buck with a 7 point rack. First deer for that gun too. First deer that Zach had to field dress (with pointers & assistance). Had to drag his butt all the way back to the van too � nearly a half mile through the woods.

Spent Sunday raking leaves and butchering the deer. Figure to get about 50 � 60 pounds of meat out of him. Lots of stew meat, some nice backstrap medallions, some meat for chili and a bunch for grinding & making sausage. Now if we can just get one for the old man . . .
