Start of the next day:       Five birds between three guys- all hard won through many miles of boot leather. And yes, there is a dog in the last pic. Mike

Gil, I have to tell you. The prairie is my favourite place to be. I miss it every day I spend in the east. This trip is good for my soul!
Big sky and the subtle beauty of the plains. What's not to love?

Hi all, well today was a special day. My Number One son Will is home on leave from the Army. He only has a couple days, so we went out and did the thing we love the most.....Pheasant hunting! Wade Burns was also with us, so a good friend and a great son, who could ask for more, well, birds I guess. I was bale to get 2 and Will got 1. Was a bit tougher hunting as the wind came up and started blowing in that 20+ mph range. Still a wonderful day for me! My son and me  Will and Wade  Will and Raina, Will used his 16ga Sauer Royal  I used my 12b Henry Atkin  Best! Greg

James,
Well, it seems clear to me, at any rate, that the wall along the border needs to be ten feet or so higher. Darned Kanucks keep getting across, and never bring me any LaBatts.
Take as many sandhills as you want back across with you.
Best,
Ted Ted, just getting my feet wet. Can't wait to miss birds in the company of you and Lloyd!
