OK...for all of you that have been sitting on the edge of your computer chair waiting for the "buck story", here it is. It was a cold Saturday morning. It was just starting to get light when the buck saw Steve and ran like the wind. Steve then got out of his blind and proceeded to sneak up on bucky. Bucky didn't see Steve, so he had a shot at him. He got all ready to shoot and bucky saw him and came at him grunting and snorting!! Steve was so scared, he thought he was done for. Out of nowhere came a shot whizzing by Steve's head missing him by only a fraction! It was Troy, behind him, taking bucky out! Wow that was close!
Actually, that isn't at all how it happened..the other story was kinda boring. It was a 5 point buck on Saturday morning. It was in Bridgeton with some kind of weapon?? See I told you, kinda uneventful!!
The best part of it was having Troy there. He loved watching it all play out, like a real live movie! He has spent hours in a blind in the cold waiting to see the big one or little one just to be like his dad! He loves his dad and everything he does! If Steve is doing something...Troy is right there beside him. Kinda humbling & scary all at the same time! He is a great example of a dad and husband for our three boys! They are lucky, in this day and age, to have such a fine example!...thank you Steve!

Joanne, you really had me going! I was freaking out, and Jake, the fast reader that he is, said, "Just keep reading." Nice editing though! You should write stories! But really, that's a sweet story. Thanks for sharing! Megan
I'm really bummed I didn't get to help gut the thing. I do remember taking a leg back to CA for show and tell. I could never get through security now with a deer leg.
I heard Patrick F McManus is hiring.
