Great photos of the hunt and Parkers. Thanks for not taking and sharing any pictures of the hernia.

I did think about snapping a photo while they were outside the truck. Not to post, but just to rib my son. Knowing him, he was quite uncomfortable with the request. However, he graciously took one for the team!

The story......
As my son and I were talking (we were sitting in the pickup)with a landowner about property lines, the landowner asked what we do for a living. My son, who is a physician, states such. The landowner, without a pause, says "I think I have a hernia, can you look at it and tell me what I should do"?

As I watched my son graciously get out of the truck and look at this man's umbilical hernia in minus degree wind-chill, it was all I could do to keep a somewhat straight face.

This hunt will be remembered for not only the aspects of the hunt, but of of an odd request which I guess was this farmer's version of a trespass fee....may have to rename this hunt!

Good thing he is not a Proctologist.
