Looking forward to meeting you in the hills. Watch out for mason jars-they tend to mess with the brain cells. Have a safe trip over.

the only nice people i have talked to so far are the ones in virginia they told me about you lot in texas.     and hey vance you comming or what? or do i have to get border bob on ta ya.  

Well, Jeff, I finally got your  Wing Bone Call (along with the other four I was working on) finished last night. Now all I have to do is get them packed and sent out this coming week (yours to Bob of course, as we discussed). Of course I did have one heck of a time getting the New Zeeland accent into that one of yours though - you may have to work with it a little more to get it down pat -      Enjoy your flight - that's an order -   :p

YES SIR!! uncle bernie and thank ya once more for the wing bone call. and dont worry about the NEW ZEALAND accent as i will  no doubt go home talking like ya all. dang wont that be funny       i just hope i dont go home with to many bad habits   :D

You'll definately pick up some bad habits...    Look at what happened to Robtattoo after only a week in Texas.      

yup dang red neck now he is selling his house and moving over there        mind you some one could temped me to stay as well no problem then i would not have to fly home    :D   btw ron i have my bag packed yup did it yesterday. did not know i had so much crap to bring mind you i could always leave your knife behind.   :D      

Jeff , make sure you look us low country boys up...shrimp n grits is goood...

Hey Jeff, I'm excited for you mate!  Wishing ya a great trip and fun hunts, visits, etc while over here.  Take a million photos, so you can send some to me to enjoy.
There's a bunch of good Tradgang "Yanks" just waiting to meet ya my friend.

hey thanks jarvis i will do that me old mate hey dave i wont be in you neck of the woods. i love shrimps but we dont rub em in the dirt to eat em  :confused:

good luck hunting while here, shame you hate rugby, I'll be going to scotland next week to watch the All Blacks play, hope you get a big buck

Ian it will just be fun being there and meeting all these guys and killie oh did i say killie?  :D  yup its going to be a hoot just trying to shoot tree rats. now i am looking foward to that for sure. if i see a deer it will be an honour. most of all it will be an  opportunity to form freindships with all these great people i have come to call family.    . "the wolf.... the tribes greatest teacher...."

Dunno if I will see you Jeff. The twelfth is a Friday, and I don't think I can make the trip after a full day at the P.O. It is a three to four hour drive for me, and Fridays usually see me working till almost five o'clock. Add on an hour to go home and fetch the dog, and another hour for the knuckleheads making their grand exit from the city, and I will fall asleep and be killed.

I can try it Saturday, for sure, if the Mason Jar will be there.  :p  
K~

That  is definitely not an option, Killie. I can't take another one of those. You stay out of that vehicle 'til you get your rest.

Besides, you have to have a special "Permission Chit" to wind up "killed" and I ain't  even  givin' it to ya - not even to meet friend Jeff. Or to anybody else, come to think on it - y'all be careful up there and keep it a "good times" hootnanny.

Well, I can't afford to bugger up the truck, anyway.  

hey no problem killie. but would like to have seen ya. oh hang on ya cant do that to us i rember ya saying  somthing about talking up a good date.    any way hope to see ya if not well hey at least ya tried. just dont go killing ya self.

There ya go! Gotta take care of our trucks - "Dogs luv trucks!!!"- LOL

mine loves the van sits right up hard against me cant move a dang mussel. i swear she thinks she can drive.dam springer  

My old dog  could  drive. I took this pic of her backing into her parking space. She doesn't hang out the window like an amateur, either, she uses her mirrors like a good trucker. Nice placement in the space, too.

thats way funny killie  

Have a great visit and a super hunt Jeff! By the way, thanks for the info on hunting in NZ. I think my buddy and I are going with Gerald Fluerty and WildSide Adventures in April 2009. Gerald and I have been e-mailing one another a few times now and he seems like a real nice guy! Can't wait!
