RE: May be my Last
The biggest regret in life I have is that my grandpa didn't live long enough to see the man I've become....and to meet his great grandson.
You and I have talked enough for me to know this though, Gary.....your grandpa knows you "get it".......and you two are of the same mold. You didn't get... "skipped"
. I think you'll know what I mean. I'd give a lot to share those feelings with my grandpa. I know you realize how blessed you are.

Thats great to hear germ.... i got too take gramps out for the opener of gun season this year also, and only 2 hours into the hunt, he shot a nice 6 point. my grandparents were also my hunting parters and teachers thru my younger years of starting hunting, many good times at there deer camp. I was looking forward this year to seeing my grandma harvest one more deer this year, but she passed away a couple months ago
Good luck on your hunt with gramps germ,i hope he whacks one,you just never know when it willbe yourtime to go.

I am hoping to get a couple more seasons with my grandpa, and today will determine that. He is going in for aortic valve replacement and double bypass, he is actually probably being operated on right now. The doctors were all very optimistic, and his health post-op should be alot better than it was pre-surgery. Good luck Germ, hope you get one!

Well we had fun, did not see a deer, but the sunset was great
At one point he told me, look at that sunset. I replied with "We are hunting whitetails, not sunsets" He laughed, in my younger days I had a hard time focusing on what we were hunting!! He knew I was messy with him!!
He may go out for muzzle loader, will see, he is having trouble breathing. His lungs are all scared from Asbestis(spelling ?).
