Excellent way to get away from all the "bad news" we're hammered with daily, to clear the head! Good luck to you and have some fun!
I'm in the same boat as you, although it won't be elk I'll be chasing, rather mule deer for a week with my brother, leaving tomorrow morning. Then back home for Thanksgiving and then off to SD for another week to chase pheasants. He's got a camp trailer we'll be roughing it in on the mulie hunt.
I have a cow elk tag for a local unit, that lasts until the end of December, so that's what I'll be doing to finish out the season.
I sure do love retirement!
