Found her!
The unseasonally warm air, meant that even one night left out in the woods would make recovery useless. It had to be found, tonight! I couldn't face the guys at work in the morning with the fact that I lost another one, as it would be my second in as many weeks.
I had been over the trail once, twice ..oh so many times. I had trail markings where I had been. I was hungry, hot and thristy..all I wanted was to get home for the meal I knew I had already missed. But I couldn't give up..not yet! I went over and over the recovery thread. I could hear Justin begging me to begina grid search. I had done all I could tonight, the best I could do is call in late for work and find the dewy remains in the morning. As I was shaking my head ponderring my mistakes, I looked one last time in the tangle of weeds that had snagged my GCC Camo on the way out..and there she lay..I was so happy to have her back! See Pic!

RE: Found her!
One thing that definitely sucks in life is losing your cell phone. I lost mine this summer at one of my softball games and I still don't have all my contacts programmed back into the new one.
Good job, way to stick with it!

RE: Found her!
Gr8 news, I hates that!....My buddy lost one while spot lighting one night. He had gotten out to use the facilities and when we got back in the car and drove away. When he realized he had lost it we had to return and we wasn't sure where we'd been. I kept calling it as he walked along the road and sure enough, heard it ring...lol
