First one is from and old structure on a 10,000 acre ranch in west Texas while hunting mule deer

Second is our family "deer camp" - nothing fancy there!

Great pic. I assume that red cooler is not a yeti. Also assume the guy leaning back isn’t looking at a laptop. Not seeing any camo either. Or a tv.

Those two are Becky's brothers - Scott and Travis - closest phone was some pay phone miles away!

Couldn't afford camo back then - lease was 200 acres out on Noname Road near Jonestown near Leander. I think we paid $300 bucks total for the place.

I remember wrapping barb wire around mesquite bushes to keep the goats from tearing up our tent, so we could leave it up for the season. It makes good memories but tent camping sux. Remember the days before water bottles, when you had an igloo water can to drink out of and wash the blood off your hands?
