I'm like you, Ken, I can't see the day I don't have a hunting dog. If and when it comes, I know my end will be near.

BTW, I hope to see some reports of your hunting over your black and tan, and red, setters this coming year. I hope the hatch is good and that you have plenty of time to go (and that the special 20 bore is all you dreamed of).
