Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting Birth of a deer camp

Nah, cause he will be next in line for a wheeler and we can get Dave and Pam a tracking kit for it no problem.

Packing up & heading to camp with the boys, have a good weekend everybody.

Good! Better put a leash on him so he doesn't take off again.

Go with the GB Preimum.

Even my dang wife likes it now. It didn't take long to whip her back into a Minn-e-so-tan [/quote]

Would that be Grain Belt?

the one and only!

glad to hear Dolchen made it back, I wouldn't try that leash idea, he got all fired mad at me when I tried it, just take a stern tone with him and he listens pretty well. I'm sure Joe will give him a talking to

Yes, yes it would.

The second 12 pack went better than the first. I was just going to save it for good stuff like deer camp and ice fishing.

Grain Belt??? They still make that S#!+?

I think that was a byproduct of the old Gentelman brewery, as I recall! 50's/60's?

We always kept a six pack of GB in camp in case somebody shot a buck and we had to flush out the body cavity after gutting it!

Whelen, you're from Sisconnie, and you expect us to believe you wasted beer on a deer? Heck, you guys don't even throw anti-freeze away! I hear Prestone deleted with a little Everclear keeps you boys on a good buzz for about 15 minutes, or until the supply runs out-whichever comes first!

Dolchen is in the hospital, joe told me today when I was at chickenbuck. he said he will be fine and he already gave him a stern talking to about jumping off cliffs.

unfortunately I had to leave before Dave got his present, although he did mention something about his medals missing from the wall, but then shrugged it off.

hit a good thunderstorm on the way home, little man is tuckered out from playing with Nathan and Joe all day. I have a gallon of blueberries I took home and they will go awesome on pancakes tomorrow when Cale and I make em we had an awesome day and I couldn't have asked for any better, I wished I coulda stayed longer but I had to go, right before supper was done too although I did get a couple of steak sandwiches I ate on the way home, good eats! PWM got lots of pics, so did Dave so I'm sure they will be up soon. I'm headed to bed, night all!

I just got a text from Dave about his present. I think he liked it. This is what we did. We got the ok from Mrs. Northern Dave and RWS took Dave's Marine medals off the wall at the shack. My mom had a shadow box and I put this together. They are way too important to be exposed to the elements. Thank you Dave and the other service members for fighting for our freedom.

very cool, I wish I coulda been there for that

He texted me something about his medals being gone off the wall. It looks great Muffy. I'm sure he liked it.

First beer I ever bought when under age was Grain Belt. My buddy and I thought we were real cool the night we scored it. Three cans of the chit and I had a pretty good buzz, Haven't had a Grain Belt since.

Great job Muffy. I'm sure Dave appreciates it.

Holy smokes what a great weekend!

Here's a look at Friday night.



Fast forward to mid day Saturday at the blueberry fields

Jealous....if I send you and ice cream pail with lid will you fill it with blueberries and send it back?

Cookin Saturday night, deer & elk straps. Veggies in the foil pack fresh from Dusty's garden.





The gift that the crew surprised me with. this was really nice, not something I would have ever done for myself but I'm so glad the group took the time. Thanks very much guys, it's really nice.

Back out today for more berries.

much cooler today, yesterday it was scorching hot!







Here's what we got today.



And here's the total for the weekend in gallon sized bags minus the bag we sent with Ryan yesterday.





There's 8 gallons of wild blueberries there plus the 1 bag Ryan has makes an amazing 9 gallons of blueberries picked this weekend.

That's a lotta pancakes & pies!

Mama said she has a chubbie for all the berries! not sure how that works yet...I'll have to look.

Glad to see uncle dusty there. He's always smiling, I love it.
