Northern Dave, as a middle-aged man who wears his love of family, tradition, hunting camps and their history on his sleeve, your telling of the closing of deer season at Camp Chickenbuck 2013 really hits home for me.

I've always enjoyed your tales about Camp Chickenbuck. Enough so that I have the t-shirt to prove it. smile I'm tickled about the way the 2013 season worked out for the camp and for Missy (Muffy?) In particular.

I not saying that this has anything to do with the success from yesterday, but how weird is it that yesterday morning is the first time in close to a year that I've worn my Chickenbuck t-shirt? It was the first layer I put on while getting dressed to go hunting yesterday morning.

Anyway, I'm happy for you and your whole circle of Camp Chickenbuck friends. It sounds like the Fates smiled on you all.

Congratulations to Missy on her deer, Uncle Dusty for the impact he had on so many people and to you, Dave for keeping family and hunting camp tradition alive.

Long may the memories last!
