Ah ya I think I saw that on FB. I know that feeling! Been watching threads vicariously living through them myself! Ah well....there's always next year! My hope is a year from now my body still aches from a Stone sheep trip and I've got a ram to show for it.

Man that's great to hear!!! A double header would sure be awesome....but seeing your Ma kill a ram would be pretty sweet, especially with the upcoming ell hunt and her chances to kill a great bull! Great start to the season! Can't wait for pics!!

Oh ya, and good luck with the baby! They sure are a pile of fun...
