So rewarding. So frustrating. How can one thing be described as both? Because it’s archery. My first experience with a bow is a perfect example of what I’m talking about. It was very rewarding for me and extremely frustrating for my dear ol’ Dad. Have you ever seen those cute little red kids bows? I…

Tribute To Coffee
It tastes as good as the sun feels when it finally crests the ridge top on a frozen fall morning and begins to thaw your numb bones causing steam to rise from the melting frost on your listless body. Suddenly, its warmth brings back your will to hunt. It tastes that good. I want to…
Legacy of Land
There are so many places I want to go see, see again and see more of. Glacier National Park for instance. Yeah, I know I live in Montana. I know it is only a couple hours away and there is really no excuse for not having seen it already. I think that the wonders right…
Mouse Tales
The stars finally aligned. All my ducks were in a row. The 2014 maiden hunt was about to commence. Seems like going out on a simple archery whitetail hunt should not be so difficult to prepare for. Difficult or not I had somehow managed to have milk in the fridge for the baby, Grandma in…
Passing the Torch
It was an opportunity that I couldn’t pass up nor did I want to. My Dad spends two weeks at his Idaho archery elk camp with his buddies but I only had one day available to go up and soak in some of the camaraderie and fresh cedar air. So I went. I took my…
Dare Ya’ll.
I love history. There are so many amazing people and events just hanging out back there waiting to be discovered and learned from. Lately I am starting to realize more and more that even more exciting than past history is our very own future where history is yet unwritten and eagerly waiting to showcase our…
Anticipation
Life without the feeling of anticipation would really be no life at all. I love having something to look forward too…something to think about that is yet to come. It can be something small like having the last load of laundry done and empty hampers or something huge like a due date or anniversary. Right…
The Mountain Man
Over Labor Day weekend my husband and I found ourselves doing what most people do on that nice long weekend…working. We wanted to take advantage of the opportunity to get some overdue work done on his family cabin. We were blessed with the help of a very special friend of ours and long time hunting…
Gerber Hunting Prep…What???
Never in my life did I imagine that my hunting season preparations would ever include the activities I found myself in today. However without a pump and some sterilized baby bottles my hunting season would be non existent this year! The time I am putting in today is an investment that will enable me to…
Java…Joe…Just a Good Ol’ Cup of Coffee
Mmm. Coffee. Yes I am one of the many Americans who could be labeled, ” Addicted ” to coffee. The cup sitting next to me is a swirling, steaming, motivating, beautiful cup of Joe made for me, with love, by my Dad. Today we are going shooting. My husband and I brought some guns to…
Puzzle Pieces
While writing my post on Jerry Miculek I decided to share my last whitetail hunting story with you even though I might be in for some criticism from those who don’t understand the extent of preparation and experience that went into it. To those of you who can appreciate and enjoy the sheer awesomeness that…
