Hello again Dwayne,

I must agree at my age every day I get to walk the earth is a blessing, especially if I am knee deep in Moose territory, or sitting in a tree stand bow hunting deer or fishing for the elusive jumbo sturgeon here on the North Saskatchewan.

Too bad you did not find that deer, experience tells me that with a little blood and then no blood at all, the hit was off target and the deer will survive his close encounter with death! It's amazing me how tough wild critters are, I can recount many stories of animals I had killed or seen with serious injuries that were surviving quit well.

Farley Mowat is definitely a Canadian Icon; he actually reminds me in many ways of Earnest Hemmingway.

Cheers my friend ~ Darren
