Looks like fun Bruce, us young guys that are still working are jealous. Keep the great pictures coming and have fun.

I am so jealous. I want to do that so bad. I am currently at the beach, Hilton Head, with the family, but am so not a beach person. I have been reading The High Lonesome Road by Robert Holthauser all morning. It is about a man and his 2 dogs traveling and hunting across the country. I will do this one year, and it cant be too soon. In the meantime, I will look forward to your posts and pictures and dream of my upcoming 2 weeks in the UP. Oh, and my new setter pup I will be getting next week after I get back home.
Shoot straight!

Lots of Huns and sharptails. Hundreds of pheasants there were three broods raised this year. Big country hundreds of thousands of acres to hunt.
Now in one if the little hamlets waaay off the grid taking a day off to rest man and dogs. Stitched up one dog yesterday. Pulled porcupine quills. Great points and holding birds tight from. 200 yards out. Hot in the afternoons for the next couple days then cooler. Big country and lots of birds. Slow internet connection and will post photos later.

Definitely off the grid here. Obama has not paid a visit to everyone's great disappointment .
