I think she survives the bear charge 😉 But it was close . I think she is hoping to get out a couple stories per month when possible but bear season starts in a couple of weeks and both she, her brother and I will be guiding so I can't say when she will have another one ready.
I do know the NRA is trying to get her to do some writing as well.

Unfortunately the NRA convention is always during spring bear season.

You done good, Phil (and no small credit to your wife either). And though you're well established as a very credible big game guide yourself, I surmise your even bigger contribution to the world is in raising the young 'ungs....both in light of and in spite of yourselves, to be a credit to themselves and their parents!
Sometimes, the air you 'let in'matters less than the air you 'let out'.

Thank you, and I am well aware that my wife deserves over half the credit as anyone who has shared a camp with us can attest .
And Besides the guiding, Tia is doing a credible job assisting her mother in the culinary and managing aspects of the business

I am sure Phil is busy in the bush right now but Tia’s next article went up a few days ago. Really enjoying her stories and looking forward to hearing more about her legend - the dad and her rifle.
