Guys Iappriciate the sympathy. It was more than just a spot to hunt, it was our life. I can't begin to tell you how many bails of straw we bailed, how many rows of beans we planted, or how many bushels of wheat we took from this land. How many deer were killed? I don't know. A lot. There are now paved roads and 800,000$ homes dotting the landscape where we hunted and harvested deer and crops alike. Just yesterday we drove through the new development and saw two huge rubsin someone's back yard, man, they just don't know. I have memories but it is painful to jog them. Our last day to hunt the last 300 ac. parcell will be Dec. 31. It's a sawmp along the river bottom, it was donated to a bird watching society.
