I'm also debating throwing in my 1911 in case anybody decides to run with dogs. I'm just not sure if I trust the Rangers for hog-stoppers.
George I took my boar a couple of years back with my 1911 Springfield using the Hornady 230 gr XTP at around 35 yards and it dropped in it tracks. Shot behind the shoulder. It was taken on Wilderness. ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v378/bea175/boar45acp2.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v378/bea175/bobboar1.jpg)
A Doe walks out of the woods today and says, that is the last time I'm going to do that for Two Bucks.

I'm fairly certain the only thing I have on hand are the 230gr. Rangers. I can't imagine there's a whole lot of difference.

Hunting with the dogs was a great time. Of course I like dogs better than people as a rule (present company excluded of course  ). We'll see if anyone is up to it with me. Plenty of time..... George i could be talked into it

Out of respect,I'll not write the names of the serial snorers but I'd be remiss in not saying ear plugs will become very expensive in camp if not brought beforehand.
If I wasn't a generous guy,I could have made over 100 bucks with a auction.

If there's fingernail polish on them,it might get a bit hairy for you.

Just talked to Alan the the Wilderness.
We will have full use of a kitchen of our own which is in the lodge where we will be staying. Pat had asked me about it because he has plans for a lot more than just roast hog. And if you have eaten Pat's food in the past, you will shout hallelujah!!
Weather looks pretty good, with some chance of occasional rain.
And I do think we are liable to be accused of having too much fun.
See you on Wednesday. Call on my cell if you need to reach me.

I'm set save for my 10am Costco run. Smith Mtn Lake by 4 to pick up his Honor and we'll be at the Holiday Inn Express next door to Bass Pro Shops in Kodak by 10pm,or so.
Next morning will have me eating my once a year grease plate at Waffle House, after a quick hour inside BPS, and then onward to camp. I think camp is about 90 miles from there but I'll have to double check on that. If anyone needs anything from BPS,call or text me on cell before 10am Wed. and I'll do my best to grab it for you.
Pat...since I'm your kitchen prep boy and gopher,if you need anything at all from Costco,please let me know.
I'll bring sparklers, cookies and milk for the new guys.

Hunting gear, rifles potent potables staged in garage. Car's tire pressure adjusted from the 20 degrees setting to the 70 today. Bag of clothes to go.
Work tomorrow and off about 1600 or until I start twitching badly. Realized my hunting rain gear is at camp so I have to swing by WV on the way down 81 and I'll make it some way down there tomorrow night and roll into camp when I get there.
On mobile at 443-695-1119 on the trip if someone needs something.

Explain to me why I can live, easily, for nine days in the White Mountains or a week during deer season from a pack but when I know I have my truck and an actual roof over my head I have to pack more schit?
Crazy.....

There's a very good explanation I'm sure. I don't actually know it but I'm sure it's very good.
