Mom told me to do this. . . . .

I went to see Mom today and she seems to be doing great. I told her that I'd shot a deer on Thursday, the 23rd but had not found it yet. Dave tracked it until 9pm when he lost blood. We went out to search for her at 4pm on Friday, just as a light rain started to drizzle. Dave lost the blood trail at 300 yards but pressed on in what was now a driving rain. He followed the deers tracks and found her nearly 700 yards away! Absolutely soaked as he drug it next to the van, 90 minutes later.

Creig tracked a deer for me in 1997 that was quite similar in length and stamina involved. Both are expert woodsmen in my book.

After I explained it to Mom and told her that I didn't have a photo of it to show her since my color cartridge was spent; she said "put it on the blog."

So here's a deer photo and story to add to Nellie Grey's Blog. I think Uncle George would be proud. Greig
