About to go

[Killdeer]

The truck is mostly full, and I dunno where the rest of it will go. Thank goodness I can't find three longjohn tops, or I know for darn sure that the load wouldn't fit.

I almost couldn't go, and I was fretting very badly, as I desperately need the time away from my life's stressors. So, here I sit, instead of loading the last of the stuff, because coffee is good and I like to take one last look around before getting on my way. Once again I will see fall turn to winter, walk the woods a free person, bristling with weapons and steeped in grateful humility. The moon is full, and will wane over the course of my hunt, and I intend some long conversations with her.

Now I see that a member of this board, who has always lent a kind hand and a gentle smile, will not be hunting this fall, as he has stepped onto the trail that leads beyond. I will include him in my campfires, offer him what I have, and try to come up with a story for him every day that I hunt. Each of these days is precious.

I wish I was always able to muster up that sort of positive attitude.  It's the journey, not necessarily the destination, right?  May your journey be pleasant.  Best of luck on your adventure and stay safe.

As long as your truck is loaded, keep on driving down to Oklahoma.  I've got a couple of decent spots down here, and some horses to ride as well.
