Gone for a spell
 

Saturday is my eldest son's birthday (14th). So, this year we are going up to the Upper Penninsula of Michigan for the opening of deer season. Hopefully he'll have a special birthday this year by bagging a buck. He has yet to shoot any kind of deer. He has wounded one (pierced the ear), which a friend shot as it ran toward him. So, he now has the nickname "ear slayer," at least until he harvests one by himself.

Will have to bring a special cigar along (for myself, he isn't quite old enough for that) if gets one. And a couple extras just to have up at deer camp.

There isn't any internet up there - at least I don't believe so.

That means I will be out of touch beginning on Friday through Wednesday.

Have fun. That is a special time. I missed deer camp for the second year in a row. :(



Have fun. Deer or no deer it will be a memory to last a lifetime.

Watch Escanaba in the Moonlight with him.

It'll bring him good luck :)

Hey, I'm from the U.P. Where are you going to be up there, eh?

Hope you guys have a great time. Good luck with the hunt.

Bessemer.

I hope we can take some. Been up there and came back empty-handed before. Hope that doesn't happen.

My dad picked up an 8-pointer the other day. He was hunting around Ewen/Bruce Crossing, not too far from Bessemer.

Can't really tell in the photo but he's wearing his trusty Jack Schwartz Importer camo hat.

Hope you guys had some luck.
