Default Went for a walk with my boys today

They were hell bent on going shed hunting.... evenmy 4 year old, he promised me "no belly-aching" ....so off we went instead of watching Nascar. We really did not have a lot of options since the snow is so deep, so we headed down low in elevation and climbed up on a mountainside that can get hit pretty hard, it setsjust above the lake. We saw one set of quad tracks in there and ended up having a great time.

The boys are growing up and they proved it, byhiking their butts off and we found 2 sheds, My oldest boy Jess found his first ever shed on his own! Little brother Ty proved to me he can handle the brush, the steep mountainsides aswehiked at least 2 miles. we alsospent a good deal of time deciphering different animal tracks, scat and analyzed a nice series of whitetailrubs..

Here is a few pix

Thats what its all about there Troy!! I remember the days of tripping over dads feet when hiking through the woods looking for sheds or up in Northern Minnesota checking his bear baits, god I miss them days as a kid!!! I hope I can do the same for my little girl as my parents did for me. Nice looking shed there too!!
