Mike ,her name is Makayla, she was 3 yrs old in that pic. Here she is Aug-2005 she's 5 in this pic.I started telling her about the insects and animals from day one and she's not afraid of anything.I spend alot of time with her and hope to get her into hunting,she love trout fishing.They are only small for a short time and have to enjoy them all you can.They are not long growing up!thats the sad part- she'll always be grandpa's little girl.

We were feeding the hounds yesterday and Makayla asks if ole Thunder was scared of bears,because she said she seen some bear tracks in the snow.Then she asked when I was going to take her to watch bears where we hunt.I think she's going to be a hunter.

I can't wait to take her this year into one of the bait sites,she'll get a charge out of that.I told her she had to be quiet and whisper low.She came back with,I'll put my hat over my moof hehehe. She has a Barbie fishing rod and last summer she caught her first trout,when she busy looking at some ants,I slipped one on her line.Told her she better check it and she pulled this trout out .Should have seen the look on her face hehehehe worth a million! I couldn't get her to put it back either,she said she wanted to bring it home and cook it up! So looks like she'll be one of us eeeeeeee haaaaaaaaaa.

Yes,Mike it was really something to see.the little ones are so dang innocent,too bad they have to grow up in this sick world.When it warms up a bit in a couple months she'll be taking the barbie fishing rod out and raring to go ;D I have a big Black and Tan here and when we go feed him,he turns away and won't eat until we're leaving.She says to the dog- don't worry bear me and papa won't make fun of you when you eat. She asked me why the dog did that, and I told her the man who owned him before made fun of him when he ate.She says, papa lets go beat that mean man up she was upset for about 3 hrs.Its time to pull the pin guys its 1:54 am long day. have a good one.

4pointer those are a couple nice blacks you got there. Can tell it was a while back that you got them, been quite a few years since we had a spring hunt. Can't wait til we convince them of their folly. Congrats.

You can say that again. ;D
We sure do miss the spring hunt. Without it we are over run with bear and it gets worse every year because the population is growing so fast.
I really hate bugs. My hubby laughs cause every fall, when I get my bear, it's outa the bush before sundown. He says I do it on purpose to avoid the bugs that come out when the day starts to cool...lol
