Thankyou for your gracious hosting and letting us stay at your place and treating us like one of the family. It was a real pleasure. Lance

That goes for Me too. Thankyou Had a great time.

The door is always open for you guys.

Mike-

Thanks for the hospitality. It is not everwhere that a fella feels right at home, but you all made it very comfortable.

Also thanks for the guide service. Even though we couldn't get a dog to help us out, I had a great time. Sorry about the tire.

Pup, I assure you, the pleasure was all mine.

Yeah, the hunting sucked on Saturday and the wind positively howled on Sunday, but just think back on all the things you got to do here that you can't in OK.

Things like:
1. Being able to shoot gallon jugs full of water just sitting on the side of the road.

2. Finding illegal alien camp sites with hypodermic needles among the trash.

3. Chatting with those Border Patrol agents that wanted to know if we were in the militia and if that rifle over my shoulder was an M-16.

4. Finding out why Arizona is the backpack capital of the world. (It's because of all the back packs in the desert.)

5. Finding out that I carry emergency food, water, air compressor, tire plugs, shovel, bow saw, first aid kit, spare tire, etc. But no stinking lug wrench in the truck. DOH!

Mike-

I can't wait for the next trip. I bet right now we can go to the good spot east of you and get one up in the flat. Every spot that we called was as doggy as it could be, they just weren't cooperating. I couldn't believe the amount of used clothing, we should open a perpetual garage sale. lol.

If I was you I would go and call on the hillside over the needles this evening, despite of our fruitless efforts, I still think that there is a few dogs there. Oh yeah make sure you throw in the 4-way. lol. You know the really great part about these hunts are the memories that nobody can take away.
