Quoted from Barrabas74
"Wow thats a dark rack there, where are you at that the racks get that dark? I see conneticut but I dont remember seeing any that black before."
That deer was taken in South Texas. The rack is pretty dark anyway, but it looks even darker in the picture because it is wet from dew.

I have put plenty lead into those burms over the years but when I moved south of Lex it became to far to drive not to mention with the restrictions it was getting harder and harder to bring a friend.

I kind of figure any guy who posts pictures of his wife or girlfriend on the internet, and then expects everyone to sit down and shut up, has probably headbutted a couple too many brick walls.
I might have taken some hard hits to the head in my life but I'm not quite so dumb as to get upset if people think my girlfriend is pretty! No offense taken here! :thumbup:
Hey Bushman...funny you should say that - I think my best lure in there has been a Blue Fox spinner...thinking black and yellow but I would have to go look at my tacklebox to be sure...I know it's the third one from the left in the top row but I can't remember the colours! So maybe I have been headbutting brick walls after all.
Anyway I will give your deer hair trim a shot next time I am up there, thanks very much! We pulled a couple of 1 1/2 pound rainbows out of there last time I was up, wrapped them in tin foil and chucked them on the fire...ate them ten minutes later, left the butter, salt and pepper untouched, just too good straight!
So are you from that part of the province? My dad was born in a mining camp maybe twenty miles from Princeton so I have spent a bit of time up that way and he knows every logging road for a hundred miles in any direction from there.

Ok, good. Last thing I wanna do is piss off a guy who lays rail for a living, and can carry 300lbs to the car without blinking. I don't need him squeezing my head off with one hand...

Well it's a small picture but it looks like trying that kind of stunt would get me shot!
And anyway it was only a 200 pound safe so I would need both hands!

Karen and I go way back to pre-digital days, so please forgive a few grainy slides from the 80s that I scanned.
First, from Zion:
Then the Needles section of Canyonlands: (Uh, whatcha doin lady?)
The painted desert:
That's not Karen. That's me at the trailhead.
We had a lot of fun wandering aimlessly and playing with the critters:
Recent backyard hike in Bayo Canyon. The dog is Karen's Bassett, Crumpet:
Karen is an artist who does many of her paintings from my trail photos. Here's an oil painting of high desert terrain west of Abiquiu Lake in Georgia Okeefe country:

One of her paintings was recently selected for the cover of our local phone book:
Dressed for dinner out in Santa Fe:
I count my blessings every day, and Karen is always at the top of the list.
