Did you go sky diving and Rocky Mountain climbing and go 2.7 seconds on a bull named Fu Manchu?

Many many nights out with friends that aren't easy to recount here.


Yes, SCUBA. And, yes, I always did have my clothes on. I never owned a wetsuit.

Guiding fun fisherman, particularly in Costa Rica for big tarpon.
I donate bear hunts to wounded vets, hunting out of my place in northern MN. We have had some very good times.
Sadly I’m running out of Nam guys.

Agreeing with a couple other guys who posted this, shooting prairie dogs. Maybe a close second, being in the stands in Game 5 of the 2006 World Series when my Cardinals won it!

I played hockey with the MN warriors until I "retired"

Let me know if you want some contact info for some disabled or combat wounded vets out of Twin Ports, St Cloud, or the cities.

FWIW, we had a few Vietnam guys on the ice when we won at nationals a few years ago.

3. Anti Terrorist Evasive Driving course at BSR. Think Nascar in an old ex cop Caprice. The whole 3 days was a hoot.

2. Final exam in the High Risk Personnel course at Quantico. Shooting what was basically an IPSC handgun course at night while the instructors
distracted us by laying down 5.56 tracers obliquely across our line of sight. Closest I got to "seeing the elephant" until............

1. First safari 1990, 3 weeks in northern Botswana. I don't have the words.

Bluefishing in the rip off Great Point, Nantucket when the tide turns. Trolling in a medium sized Whaler, really too small of boat to be out in that water, but we were young and dumb. Waves so high you could see the blues following the lures in the waves twenty feet in front of your face as the boat slides through the trough. Those fish just about jumped in by themselves! Hooked up two and three at a time. It was a circus; then it was over as fast as it started. Great times!

I feel ya! when I was kid my uncle had a 20' Mako and we used to run off Madaket and Surfside until we'd see a slick where the blues were feeding and cast pencil poppers into the slick, reel them in as fast as we could, and the blues would jump all over each other hitting the lure....so much fun.

BUT....my "most fun I ever had with my clothes on" was the 1 hr of stick time I had in a P-51 doing some basic aerobatics with the guys at Stallion 51 in Kissimmee, FL. The instructor gave me the plane right after takeoff, I did the climb out, some basic slow flight, steep turns and stalls to get a feel for it, then we did some aileron rolls, barrel rolls and a couple loops.....strafed some clouds while my stomach settled and then i flew it down to the flare on the landing....bucket list and well worth the $3k it cost.
