Last Weekend of Deer Season

This past weekend was the last weekend of deer season, so we packed up the car and traveled to Jackson for the weekend. It gave David one last chance to hunt and gave Owen and I some time to visit with Grandmama, Pop and my dad.

I love staying at the camp...waking up and looking out at the river, sitting on the front porch rocking, watching the birds and just being outside. It was a beautiful day on Saturday. We have been experiencing some very cold temps, so a warm spring-like day was very welcomed. I think the high was 74 degrees...it was perfect!

Cardinals were everywhere

Owen just looks at everything and seems to be taking in anything new that he sees or hears. He saw deer, coyote, a fox and raccoon this weekend.

The coyotes are taking out a large part of the deer population, so my dad had a trapper set some traps to remove some from the area.

This is the trapper's precious daughter and her fox. She was very proud of him : )

Little Bit was so exhausted by Saturday afternoon he took a major nap. So my other baby (Cooper) got some much needed attention.

I think heaven for Cooper would be the river. He can roam free, swim in the river, retrieve and be a woods dog! He loves it! David finished out the the season with one more deer.

...now he is practicing his turkey call, spring will be here before we know it!
