A Season Full of Memories

Here are some random pics of me and my hounds from this year/hunting season.  I put 32,000 miles on the Beast, bought licenses in seven states, hunted and harvested nine species of upland bird and loved every single minute.

Another season comes to a close.  My long-suffering-wife reminded me I promised not to mope around the house after my last trip.  Sorry, Honey, can't comply.  Only 7 months to bird season!
