Deer Camp 2006

So we made it back from our great hunting trip. Neither one of us shot a deer this year....Stan missed a buck (twice I have to add!) but I hunted for eight days and never saw a buck. Pretty pathetic! The closest thing I saw was the one my 12 year old niece shot. I'm a little bitter that she shot one and I didn't.....but I'm happy for her!
To answer some questions that have come up......the smokehouse is NOT a bbq. It is more like a homemade outhouse. I have to say it is GROSS!! I opted out of many visits to it this year for personal safety issues. Another question has arose over the term "Round Guy" (For those that don't know, I had hats made for all the men that read "Team Round Guy") This term was coined several years ago and is merely an endearing term used to describe the shape of most of the men at camp. My uncle is team captain (his nickname is Lump), however, there are several guys that with a few more burgers and fries and a couple bad years could easily over take this prestige title.

Sounds like you guys had a good time. Sorry the deer eluded you yet again. (Try Outback Steakhouse!...you can get a lot of meat for the price of deer tags!) Just kidding. I thought of you guys when I passed by Hermiston. Will definitely have to stop by and see you guys one of these times.

What a fun family tradition! I wouldn't want to shoot poor little Bambi's daddy though! :)
