Life is good

Those bear steaks do look delicious. The skulls turned out great. I don’t have a Bob cat skull yet. None around here yet. A few years ago a single one passed through and raided the neighbors geese pen. The DNR relocated it a little further north.
Hope the shoulder surgery goes well Pappy.

Thanks Pat/BJ. Ya Pat Jimmy has been going through some life things and I think got off the health kick he was on, haven't seen him in a long while until lately, hanging out is seeming to help so glad he is back and getting things together. BJ the bear steaks were great, I have heard some say bear wasn't good but to me it is about the best meat I have eaten. We don't have many Bob Cats here either, this one my buddy killed last season just NE of us 20/30 miles. I have been seeing a few around over the last few years but not a lot, The Red fox is making a come back though, use to have a bunch of them when I was young ,until the Coyotes came in, but they must have figured out how to avoid the Yots and seeing more and more of them last few years, rather have them than Coyotes that's for sure. :)

bjrogg:
Gotta agree with you about the bear meat. At least any I’ve had was very good.
The red fox around here have really made a big comeback. Like you said they were almost nonexistent after the coyotes showed up. They seemed to have moved in closer to people here. I’ve seen them laying on peoples lawns sunning themselves. We have a female that regularly hunts around our barns and I think she probably has a den here somewhere but I haven’t found it.
Pappy:
Ya BJ I hope they keep doing well around here, never really seen them cause much problems like the yotes do and love watching them play and hunt. :) Headed for my MRI this morning, not scared of much but sure don't like being put in a pipe where I can't move, just as Miss Joanie says
"suck it up buttercup" I guess. ??? Then plan on heading to the cabin, got another deer to cut and package and if the sun will finely shine scrape on my hides, who knows what else :-\ :) May even do a little hunting if the shoulder will hold up. Hope yall have a good one also. Life is Good. :)

Great weekend, cold but lots of fun. Jimmy showed up Thursday with a doe he killed with the bow he has been working on, it was a Gary Davis blank, I am sure this would make Gary proud. :) Also just FYI , it's not going to look the same in the wood around the cabin, had a couple of trees fall so having a logger cut several the keep them off the pavilion/work shop and cabin. I really hate cutting trees but it has to be done. :( Quite the mess right now but we will get it cleaned up so it won't look so bad I hope.
