Hi guys and gals its been a long year. Lots of good and not so good in mine and Jane's life this year but all is good now. We bought 22 acres of land to build our new home in the woods GREAT got started on house Aug. 20 and Jane was found to be VERY ill as we started to frame the house. Lots of visits to Mass. Gen. moved her into the new home Nov. 9th and major surg. Nov. 16 . Then back to the new home to recover and the holidays. She is doing great now and the long term out look is very good. I did not get the PLAIN JANE in the water once this year with the clearing of the land and then the building and then caring for Jane. I also did not get to hunt but once or twice in Mass. with the bow and not at all with the gun till the week before Xmass with black powder. I did get a small buck just out side my front door that day so there is meat in the freezer. Now its time to thin out the coyote in the back yard. Got two last week and one yesterday morning. One from the front porch and two from the back deck. God I love this new place.
And yes I am legal as we are 640' from the nearest house and we own 3/4 of a mile back into the woods from the house. Hope 2010 turns out to be a good year for all here at S.B. God bless.
