All the young people are not lost to video games and street culture.
A few weeks ago I was spraying on a farm I lease from a widow lady. A car pulled into the field, lingered awhile on one field edge, then approached me. A petite little blond girl exited the car and walked towards me. She introduced herself as the granddaughter of the lady i lease from. I said to her "I hope you're hunting hogs." She smiled and said that she was, and had killed a few. I learned today from her grandmother that Marlee is 21, newly married to a guy she met in Maine where she went bear hunting. She is a ravenous hunter, and processes her own game for meat.
I am so impressed with this young lady who possesses an unquenchable thirst for big game hunting. Her grandad and i were close friends and hunted together many times for ducks and doves. Apparently, Charles' genes were strong and are being exhibited in his granddaughter Marlee. May her tribe increase.
