Gary made it home

[gja1000]

He came in from the deer lease last evening. He had a nice time down there with his aunt, two uncles and a cousin. They were there 6 days. His uncle and cousin got a deer. Gary brought part of one deer home for his uncle to have it made into summer sausage. So, we spent a couple of hours washing and cutting up the meat this morning getting it ready to take to the processor.

This will probably be the last hunting trip to this particular lease as they are losing the lease the first of Feb because the landowner has sold the property. Gary has been on this lease for 10 years, so he is grieving a bit. It is OK, he has another place to hunt, but it will be sad to sell all the stuff they have down here.

He and his best friend built the camp house from scrap lumber and reclaimed materials. It has been a fun place for him to go - but all things come to an end. I will be glad for him to be able to hunt closer to home and not have to stay away from home for days.
He will be OK too, after everything is sold and taken care of.

I think I have posted these pix before, but here are some pix of the camp house. We have a lot of "stuff" to sell!
