Real nice painting!  That is nice country, and great scenery.  Btw, the aspen are starting to turn up here, at least in the high country.  The bow and arrows look good, as well, but when you stop for a Snickers, hope there are no regerts >:D. Good luck on the rest of the hunt!

Thanks for making my day Brad. Really nice pictures and paintings.
Seems like whenever I get a opportunity to take a picture like the last one, I can't decide if I should try to take the picture chancing missing the whole thing or just enjoy the moment and file it away in my brain. Thanks for getting the picture

Good Luck with the turkeys Brad. Funny usually I see turkeys while I'm deer hunting and deer while I'm turkey hunting.lol. Just good to be on the right side of the sod and out there with them all.
