Thanks Joe - I was sitting here at age 50 feeling "beat up" from hunting and wondering how many more years I would be able to keep this up and then I read your account of your season...I should be ashamed of myself for thinking this way at my age...I hope I can read your stories for the next 39 years too... thanks for the inspiring post, I need to hobble over and get a couple more Aleve and then head out to the stand... Happy Thanksgiving to you all !!
