Back around 2006 there was a young man on our lease who decided to go back to college. He couldn't afford the lease fees those years so I paid them so he could continue to hunt when school allowed. In 2008 I became disabled, had no income and couldn't pay the fees. The past three years that young man has paid my lease fees so I could continue to hunt. Bread upon the waters?

Sadly, don't find many people like that. But both of you guys should be commended!

I refuse to let the world get me down and awareness of a situation such as this is the reason. Just a short little post with bundles of greatness. Thanks for sharing. My hat is off to both of you. Congratulations
