2 more things.....

No. 01: Atlas.....finally.....common ground.

No. 02: The sense of RESPONSIBILITY of getting my son into hunting FAR OUTWEIGHS the pleasure or satisfaction I have with him being out there with me, right now. I guess you could say I'm still "nervous". Does he truly understand what I'm teaching him (ethics, being a good steward of the outdoors, etc...)? Will he do the right thing (i.e. not take an unethical shot/truly respect his prey in ALL endeavors/etc...)? When I KNOW he's "got it".....and I don't have to worry about it.....THEN I'll likely enjoy hunting with him moreso. Right now....school is still "in session". Kinda like life, huh?
