Hunting With My Son

I received a phone call yesterday afternoon around 3:00 from my son, Greg, if I would like to hunt with him Sunday morning at his camp, Brown's Point on Kings Point Island.  Of course, I told him I would love too.  Got all my hunting clothes on, some overnight things packed and Marian took me to the Kings Point Ferry at 7:00 where Greg came over on the ferry to meet me and take me back to camp.  So glad to see some of my old hunting buddies there and some new faces also.  We all sat down and had big bowl of venison stew.  It was delicious! Settled in upstairs in Greg's room and I looked forward to an early morning hunt.  Below are some pictures of our hunt together.

I slept on the bottom bunk!  Used my hunting jacket for a pillow.  


This morning on a deer hunt - I still look kinda sleepy!

In front of us...

Greg waiting for a deer to step out.

Greg did not think I would be able to get into his deer stand (No. 38) but showed him I could. 

Noticed the center limb sticking out - it looks like a dog's head - do you see it?

To the side of us...

In front of us...

Checking out the green field to the right of us.

Leaving stand No. 38.  Had a good morning hunt and only saw a few deer that were too far away for my son to shoot.  It's was great to be outdoors and enjoy nature and watching it wake up for another day!  Life is good!
