Sitting by the fire on our last night in Africa it is getting cold outside a new couple from Texas just arrived and shot their first gemsbok, and the rest have left to head to other ranches to hunt. So just the four of us and PH's and owners left her for our dinner. Sure it will be another great dinner.

Careful there, You're getting old like me and those falls hurt a lot worse than they used to.
Was it worse than falling down the hill our first year in Shamrock?

Will either of you be able to enter da plane? Figured your heads are so swole up, may not fit through the door...

Well, Momma will be glad to see her baby girl/only girl I guess. Now for the REAL LONG plane ride home..

Hope your leg won't be too cramped on the flt home.

Just curious what is the process of getting the capes back home for mounts? Also do you get to bring meat back or is it used by the local tribes? Sorry if these questions sound dumb I know nothing about these trips to Africa. Great pics and glad y'all had a blast and memories to last forever.

Have seen some airlines give free upgrades for the injured if there is a seat available in first class. Hope the leg is better for the flight

The capes are treated here and skulls boiled and all crated to be shipped home salted and dried except the giraffe I had it tanned here to prevent any chance of hair slippage. Some of the meat is used to feed people that can't afford to eat and some is sold I believe. The crate won't get to me for 5 or 6 months.
