on a normal year i used to miss about 15-20 days of school a year and was only sick one or 2 of them...but this year my dad got fridays and saturdays off so i can hunt and fish without missing school and i missed 2 days this year(did tag out the first day of deer season too so that helped get me back in school) turkey we usually take a week trip then if we sitll havent taken a bird we take a few more days...but this year i dont know whats going on..i know we have a few days...but im 16 this year and i got turkeys behind the house so dad can say he quits and im still able to hunt...it was nice when i was young..the end of the school year we did nothing..now we have finals and all kinds of stuff so i try to show up more...this year i will probally go on the normal week trip missing 5 days then hunt saturdays..maybe skip a day or 2 and hunt myself if i havent shot a bird yet...
