Another year has passed by and I am another year older. October 22nd is my birthday so I took to the woods for a little turkey hunting and some time to reflect back on the past 61 years. WOW! It was a good fall day, cool temps, some clouds but more sunshine then clouds and a little breeze made it the perfect day to be out in the woods. I found myself walking a while then finding a place to sit and making a few calls. As I sat I would drift back to different hunts some successful and some not, but no mater they were all a good time with family and friends. After a while I would move on and repeat the same thing. Later in the afternoon I met up with my hunting partner and the two of us sat against a large maple watching several squirrels working about looking for food. We talked about life in general, and the deer season to come the signs we seen while in the woods and the deer that we came across as we made our way through the woods. After sitting for awhile we both went different ways ...

A evening scout with Tony Baker, Mike Judson, Steven Caudill and myself. My wife Gail also went along with us.  I have seen Tony and Steven at events in the past but never spent time with them until this evening. Mike and I have know each other and have been good friends for a long time.  We were only out for a few hours but, it was a good time and I met two new friends.

I picked up this knife this past weekend at a small gun & antique show. Today I put together this sheath to go along with it.
