Glad you took time to snap photos over the years Bob. I find it impressive how you do such a good job of doctoring up your blind to blend into the surroundings. Most people could walk by and not know it's there. Paul
Paul, that is me during my first duck season in 1960, I was 12 years old.
Photo # 3 is of my sister's boy at 12 years old shooting his first Greenhead!
Photo # 4 I was 15 years old on one of our floating duck blinds. We hunted divers such as Greater Scaup, Canvasbacks, Old Squaw, Scoters and an occasional Black Duck AKA Black Mallard.
I have always had a camera with me over the years. I loved taking pictures as early as 9 years old.
I am relaxing outside our luxurious motel room killing time before the afternoon hunt.
That Mule Deer was standing right in front of my pickup, I zoomed in so you could not see the hood on my truck.
