Yeah, I' m getting anxious too. Just over 3 weeks and the smoke pole comes out, and I hope to fill my Taneum cow tag. Bldhound is gonna be in the neighborhood chasin' ' em too. You get too many southern boys in the woods chasin' elk(or anything for that matter), and all hell' s bound to break loose. I just hope these showers don' t turn into thunder boomers up in the hills. We aren' t getting enough rain to overcome the fire threat any time soon. It' s definitely getting to be that time of year though. You can smell it in the air.

Wayne, you got a big boy located on your place this time around? I expect to hear stories of you filling your tag and see you posing instead of somebody else. You need some fresh pics of yourself on your webpage, and nobody wants to see that mug of yours unless it' s grinning with a trophy in hand.
