Freezer full

This is just a preliminary report about the buffalo hunters and the hunt. Drew got a 5-6 yr old bull buffalo this morning. They just got home a few minutes ago - it's 10:20 p.m. We are looking forward to having a freezer full of meat. Thank you Lord!! I'll post a few pictures of the scenery and the guys and the buffalo, then, in a few days, I'll try to tell you the details of the hunt. Thad, my cousin, went with them to help with moving the buffalo and dressing it out.
Scenery in and around Delta Junction, Alaska

A proud moment

Drew was holding the head up by the horn, he said, "it's harder than it looks".


My cousin, Thad, with Drew and the buffalo. Thanks Thad for your help!!

Another proud moment.
