Cow Elk!

Well, hello to all my blog readers. Just a warning, this blog is going to talk a lot about hunting, which shouldn’t come as a surprise. So last Friday, I went up to our hunting cabin, and let’s just say I had a blast. I ended up shooting my cow elk early Saturday morning at just around day break. My dad, my sister’s boyfriend and I were walking across the creek and just about into the trees so we could make our way down the valley to our spot. As we were just about into the trees, two animals that I thought were does, came trotting off the other side valley towards us, but to our surprise, they were two cow elk. So we shot them right on the spot and dragged them back to the cabin and had them hung by 8:30 that morning. After we got the elk hung up, we heard a lot of other shooting going on, so we decided to back out hunting, but since I already shot my elk I just scouted for the others. The next day was just about the same thing: a lot of hunting which meant a lot of scouting for me, but I don’t mind because it’s fun to see more elk and help our friends out. We skinned my elk up at the cabin to keep from getting a mess in our friend Bill’s garage; we have to hang it there because we don’t really have a garage since we sold our house. Sunday night I watched the Cowboys play a very hard fought game, which ended in our favor thank God. Tony Romo is finally back, which is about a thousand times better than having Brad Johnson at QB. This week I’ll be doing a lot of studying since I have two tests on Friday, Pre-Calc and Accounting. Have a good week, and I’ll check back in before I head home!
