Congratulations to all, great job!
Will Munny: It's a hell of a thing, killing a man. Take away all he's got and all he's ever gonna have.
The Schofield Kid: Yeah, well, I guess they had it coming.
Will Munny: We all got it coming, kid.

That's fantastic. I love it. My nephew and I got his first hog in Lorida some years back, when we lived in Hillsborough County. Where were you hunting? Nassau county, near Hilliard.

I just finished up Addie's skull. used 40% peroxide to whiten it up and then a couple of coats of mop & glow to seal it. I think it turned out pretty good. It will look nice in her room next to her first turkey she shot last spring. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/Y9kVP11s/thumbnail-33.jpg) ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/mkKyvsvg/thumbnail-27.jpg)

Awesome story, thanks for sharing. You have to be totally proud, and it shows! I hope to do likewise with my grandkids, the oldest of which are 7 and 5 right now. perhaps in a couple years!!!

Just got Merritt's knife back. Thought I would add the pic. ![[Linked Image from i.postimg.cc]](https://i.postimg.cc/hPyxPfd8/thumbnail-26.jpg) He will always remember gutting and skinning his first deer with Pop Pop.
