When I Say “brown” I Mean Elk!!!





Hey everyone, well hunting season has officially started. Today wasn’t the “official” opening day since they changed the regular opening day from Sunday to Saturday. Right now I really down care for this rule change since I’m still playing football and I can’t hunt on Saturday’s during football season, which means that the elk are already spooked for us on Sunday. But after next year I will really enjoy this new rule because then I can hunt a full weekend. So today my father and I went out hunting, we didn’t see any “brown”, when I say “brown” I mean elk. We did though run across a wolf, it was mind boggling, we were on our way back from hunting and we had one run across the road on us, it was massive and looked like a German Sheppard. This was the first time I have ever seen a wolf in the wild, I still can believe that I saw one. One thing that really bothered me while hunting today was all the beer cans my dad and I picked up on the trail, I bet we picked up ten beer cans; I sure would like to punch the person responsible. First of all who drinks and hunts and second of all if you’re going to bring crap into the wild just bring it out. I’m not a “tree hugger” by any means but it’s just respect for our wilderness and the sport. On a liter not I would like to talk about something at Montana Tech, I would just like to thank Chancellor Gilmore on a job well done while he has been in power. I really enjoy talking with Chancellor Gilmore on occasion a lot and really respect his open-door policy that he has on campus with all of his students. Even though we are not a very large campus, Chancellor Gilmore always has time for the students; even if the task is something as silly as pulling raffle tickets for our football team on home-games for our football team. I would just like to thank Chancellor Gilmore for everything that he has done here at Montana Tech.

Nothing Like It!!!


Well happy Monday everyone, if there is such a thing. Well this last weekend went very good, first of all we got a win against the Western Bulldogs for our homecoming weekend and second of all, my mom and dad stayed the whole weekend, which I really like when they do. So this weekend I will be traveling up to Helena because the whole Frontier Conference is off this weekend, which means that we all have bye’s this weekend which also means that have some much needed rest to catch up on. While in Helena this weekend, I will be doing some fishing depending on the weather, but for sure will be sighting in my hunting rifle for this upcoming hunting season. I can’t wait for hunting season to start, hunting is just so relaxing, there’s nothing like walking through the woods during a cold winter morning while the sun is just waking up and is coming over the mountain across from you. If any of you are hunters you all know exactly what I’m talking about and if you’re not you need to try it sometime. Well everyone I hope you all have a great week…..
