Kids don't remember the first day they watched TV with their Dad.

Merry Christmas

My dad shot a buck when I was with him, I was 11. I remember that deer more clearly than any I've taken on my own since.
Only when the last tree has died and the last river has been poisoned and the last fish has been caught will we realize we cannot eat money.

That is the most amazing slice of true philosophy I have read in a long dang time!

Nice day for you, Slimbob, and Littlebob, too

Same here Pearl, I was 13 or so hunting with my dad and he shot a 10 point. I can still remember so much detail about that day. I remember the steam coming off all the hot cups of coffee early that morning in camp, the smell of apples at the blind as that was our cover scent, the covey if quail just outside the door that fascinated me for a good bit of the morning. The details are vivid in my mind all these years later and that's before the first deer was even spotted. I still have a paloroid of me kneeling beside that buck when we found him.
