I honestly mean this. My wife and I started out alone. Before her, my life was somewhat rocky because I made some bad decisions. We were married 7 years before we adopted a daughter. 6 months later my wife was pregnant. We raised our family. Kids are gone and went their own ways. At 55 Nan started hunting with me. She LOVES it. Now we are both in our mid 70's and alone again. But for one reason or another these deer hunting threads seem to bring out the absolute best people on the campfire. Your kind replies mean a great deal to us.
