Mary and Tracy (Bert's daughter).

Martien is pouring a stiff drink. Earlier in the day he hit his head on the rafters in his new house while pouring insulation in the attic and almost knocked himself out. Might as well drink some rye, he'll have a headache for the next few days anyway.



Here's Mary, Clint, Jesse and Holly with Wyatt Joseph Wayne Foden.

These deer will not be wasted as everyone will have venison steaks and sausage and chops.

This is truly eating organically and locally!

First day of the season

They had good luck on the first morning of the hunt.

These deer will hang for four or five days until Bert and Benji butcher them and they are distributed to everyone's freezers.

Hunting season

Hunting season once again and the lads in the Grattan Boys Camp have been very successful with four deer including a good sized buck on the first morning of the hunt. Here is Willy Kelly, Bert and Benji and their dogs making their way back to the camp.
