Headed out to set a few traps for what may be the only time this year. Probably only 4 x 110 and a DP and it's going to dump Niagara falls on us tonight lol... having said that I am thankful for the opportunity and that I get to drag my bratty kids along It is basically a miracle that we are even alive and my good fortune to live somewhere that trapping is even an option. Tight chains trapper men, hope to have pics to share
Just happy to be here.

13 traps set, 13 animals waiting for you tomorrow. I hope you can sleep tonight with that rolling around in your head. THAT'S what trapping is about for me. The anticipation of the next check. There is nothing like it.

Thanks fellas. PCR, that's a "before" pic. I sure did wear 'em out though. At one point my daughter said "Slow down daddy, you're walking too fast for our little legs to keep up!" LOL
Just happy to be here.

Looking good! Enjoy the youngens as they quickly grow up!
Chris Too quickly! Oh wait. I meant it's the grandkids that grow up too quickly.
I don't care how nice the hand soap smells, you should never walk out of the restroom sniffing your fingers.

On walkabout with my daughter, we spied these 2 fighting and decided to take the starch out of their shorts. Very fortunate to share these moments with my kids, I had no such luck growing up as my dad had given up hunting by the time I was 3
Just happy to be here.

Some nice memory making there slydogx!
Did I miss something earlier in the year in regards to your "its basically a miracle we're alive" (house fire, car accident?)?
"And God said, Let us make man in our image �and let them have dominion �and all the creatures that move along the ground". Genesis 1:26

Hey NonPCfed, we had a catastrophic house fire. The miracle is that we were in the middle of selling the house, and by chance we had decided to stay with family that night. House was struck by lightning and was fully involved within minutes. Fire department responded in 9 minutes and house was a loss.
Just happy to be here.
