Thanks for the welcome everybody.

Slee - I guess my favorite critters to hunt are deer, bear, elk, upland birds, and most recently turkey. Still a virgin with turkeys. This will be my third year trying so hopefully in a month or so I will be able to announce that is no longer the case.

Nascar88 - Let's see, like my post indicated, I currently live in Normandy Park. For those of you that don't know, it is about 3 miles due west of SeaTac airport. I grew up in Aberdeen on the coast. Went to WSU and graduated from there in '85. I'm 40, married and no children. I love to hunt and fish but work gets in the way more than I like.

Wayne1 - Well, there is a story. It's not all that interesting though. In '92 I went on an Alaska moose hunt with three others. It was an annual hunt for two in the group and they had a tradition of handing out nicknames to everyone based on things we either said or did during the hunt. Seems I spotted all the moose we harvested so someone commented on my good eyes. After that I was dubbed Moose Eyes. I decided to use it as a handle in some of the hunting forums I frequent. So if you see that name elsewhere, it is probably me.

BlackLab and gordo84 - Thanks for saying hello.

Looking forward to joining in on some of chat going on here.
