Can anybody help me out with this situation? My hunting buddy, my dad, has been gone from this old earth 5 years now. We always hunted together on our 300 acre farm located in Tucker County, WV for over 25 years. I still find myself going to his tree roothole expecting to find him. Thanksgiving day was for the second year straight very hard to deal with. I was the only person on the farm that day and I found myself so lonely. Is this normal behavior and if so do I need to take a break from it or keep on plugging away? This sounds like Dear Abby column however who better to get advice from than the hunters. Hopefully somebody can relate to it.
