txbowhntr, I feel for you. I would really be ill if my work took me away from hunting for the next few weeks after all the practice and work I've done for the upcoming season. The only comforting thought I can think of is that at least your employed and can afford to drown your sorrows. Tonight, after practicing with my bow, I'll join you in partaking of the spirits.
You know, maybe something bad was going to happen during your hunts and God is just getting you away from it so you'll be safe.
