bushed and beat

It's the first day of deer hunting season, and Levi and I are in Bedford, PA at Kim's parents' place for the annual "Take Your Gun For A Walk" celebration. This year's festival was marked by 24 hours of rain and an profound absence of deer. We eat pretty well, and the time spent with family can't be beat.

Levi turned 12 this year, and so enters the realm of the Junior Hunter. He was a little cold and wet today, just like the rest of us! He gave the day 7 out of 10 stars. And just like that, my boy is a hunter.

I took a couple of pics of Levi all geared up this morning at 4:30. I'm too tired to post them. If you'll excuse me now, I have an appointment with a couch and the Steelers--at least until I fall asleep!
