I’ll be feeling better this evening at dinner with Legh and Jenn Higgins and Phil Carr and his better half, and my BIL Jamie at a nice place in Hardwick, VT.
I’ve never met Phil and have always wanted to. Phil hunted with Legh today and he’ll be hunting with Jamie and me tomorrow in Tampico. Should be a lot of fun.

If that is the gun you had at Addieville in April it breaks my heart, looks like it is fixable but damn that it's Oct. Glad you and Grace are OK. Hope it repairs easy.

That’s the one Dan. It breaks my heart too.
But I have another VHE 28 I can shoot in the interim.

Easily repairable - I’ll be shipping it out next week.

Dang Dean I will need to buy you a scotch after seeing the stock. Legh and I got out today 1 grouse flush and 2 Woodcock. Legh connected one woodcock.
To add a little insult I just grabbed a shower and looked out the window. I could not believe it a grouse feeding across the back yard. Pat watched the grouse while I assembled the Parker which I had put away. Unfortunately the grouse made it into the trees before I got down there. Would have went in after him but hard place to hunt with no clothes on.....that part is not true but the part about the grouse is.
Now I can’t relax I keep looking out the window.

Phil, tell Dean I can fix that. I've fixed the same kind of damage by a pierced primer on that 28.
