Girl Party
I wanted to take my 9 yo on a turkey hunting trip this year, and asked where she would like to go, because she still thinks I’m cool, turkey hunting is cool, and airplanes are cool. She said “Dad, you always seem to have fun in Texas”. She is correct.
So, I threw the idea out to Cali, he enlisted his killer, and we took a close family friend to hunt and help us out. The older girls were vital in encouraging mine, and the girls killed 5 rio gobblers. Cali threw in a 6th by doubling with his daughter.
I’m sure she will think I’m stupid and not cool one day, but the past 4 days, that wasn’t the case. Lots of sprites and snacks and desserts, and smiles. Hunting with kids is a unique challenge. Hunting with girls adds nuance to the challenge. Just take them. It’s hard, but damn it’s worth it.
All birds were shot gobbling and strutting. Also, the travel 0001 Mr Fox vest made the trip, so that added some coolness as Jane and Anne Mac got to be the first females in the log book!
Them that don't know him won't like him, and them that do sometimes won't know how to take him
He ain't wrong, he's just different, and his pride won't let him do things to make you think he's right
They don't put Championship rings on smooth hands
