Monday WaterCooler – pre Thanksgiving

by jdclyde . Updated 19 years, 7 months ago

And what a weekend it was. First year for my boys to come hunting with me, so we rented a cabin up in Mio Michigan for the weekend. (The WiFi was down because of a lightning strike, in case people were wondering why it was nice and quiet around TR for the last few daze.)

Four days in the woods, and it was great. Never shot a thing, and had a great time. (letting Bambi get bigger for next year!)

My bud came along, so we would split up. He took thing two with him and thing one came with me. (my twin boys). They actually saw one, but by the time they could identify if it was a buck or not, it was gone. Thing Two was still excited about it.

Did some of the other hunting traditions. Took them to the lounge at the bowling alley and shot some pool. Would have gone to the bar, but it was full already and smokey.

Watched some DVD’s in the cabin as well.

Gave them a little bit of beer, one bottle split three ways. Red Stripe was too “watery” for them, so the next night we had Killians. That was much better. No future Budlite drinkers in this family. (no, they didn’t finish the glass either)

They see that I NEVER have more than a few, and I remember my grandpappy used to always give me some of his beer when I was little. Took the mystery away, so there was never the big deal about sneaking out to drink like many of the other kids in school. Much more fun to be the sober one laughing at the people as they purge……

Thing One had brought along my guitar instead of his, because mine has the hardshell case for it. had a lot of fun with that as well.

Going back up Friday. I can’t wait.
