My boy killed a bear. A really big one. Apparently it's a 'Boone and Crockett', which means something for the record books. You have never, in your life, seen a child so proud. Can I still refer to him as a 'child' now that he has met, and mastered, a 300pound wild animal? If ever there was a test for manhood, I'm thinking that would be it.
I have been assured that there are photos somewhere of this remarkable event. I will post them when I get them.
The hide and skull are at the taxidermist's. We won't have the bear rug until Spring.
I am so proud of my boy...I mean 'man.'
Meanwhile, back at the ranch....
My house is eerily quiet this morning. The kids are still sleeping, and I need to get them up soon to pursue their academic endeavors. My goals for the day are a bit agressive. Fall is here, and I have yet to finish the summer yard work. The ARC is coming tomorrow to collect my donations and I have yet to finish that project.
There's lots to do!
Plus, the coffee is kicking in, and I need to spring into action.
Have a fantastic day, everyone.
