Twas the night before the Co. Draw

Sorry for the XMAS theme but I feel like a little kid again waiting for santa. I've been checking every minute under the tree for hopes of reading the words Successful at the Colorado Division of Wildlife's web site. Just in case you don't have the link handy here i t is.

I haven't been to Colorado for a Mule deer hunt since 1992, and haven't tagged a deer their since 1989. It's been a long wait, I've raised a couple kids since that time. I'm still raising them but at least they are old enough now to help momma around the house while I finally get to go hunting again (hopefully).
I'm not a trophy hunter, just a hunter and outdoorsman at heart. Many of my friends continued to go back those past 15 years I've missed out. I'm from Sacramento California, and have longed to go back to the beautiful State of Colorado. It's not so much about the kill for me as it is the country, the camping and the camaraderie of friends. The hunt and of course the kill would make it that much better, but reading the words successful of a draw will be a good enough present for me.
I dig the planning of the trip and even the dreaded travel across Nevada. I'm not so much a fan of the hot seasons, but even in the worst of weather you'll find me smiling from ear to ear.
Cheers to all of those waiting like me, and hopefully after the postings on June 1st you'll let your dreams begin! I know I will! Good luck to everyone, where ever your travels and hunting may lead.
