I'll keep my fingers crossed for you wingmaster36. The economy has really put a crunch on everything fun I have planned also. I had to miss the Cheyenne rodeo this year because I couldn't justify the cost of gas when I have two out of state hunts planned also. Things have to turn around for the better soon.

We usually get into Canon City about 12:30 and then leave about 6:00 in the morning. We always eat at the local Mcdonalds before we head on down the road for our final leg of our trip.

Good Luck to you and your son. Make sure he enjoys his hunt even if he doesn't get anything. You will want to keep his interest in the sport. Kids read all the magazines and think that if they don't come home with a 350 bull that they did something wrong. Silvertip I will be easy to spot. I will be the one that looks like he hasn't slept in two weeks because of the anticipation, have a smile so big on my face that Mike Tyson couldn't knock off, and will be holding my side from laughing so much and stupid things that were said and done at past hunts.

Well, I went to a trap shoot last weekend at the Remington plant and placed 2nd. The cool thing is I won a Winchester 70 super shadow in 7mm wsm that I have sold for $500.00. Another lick like that and I'll be in unit 444 come Oct 18th! One more miracle please.
