NFR

Still enjoying the NFR, Las Vegas. Went to a Brooks and Dunn concert with Reba McIntyre. What a great production, even though we had semi-nose bleed seats!
Tomorrow is a horse auction. Lord have mercy.
Having a great time!
Love, UR/Dad

Good morning, NFR time in Vegas again!
Our favorite first lunch stop, Mon Ami Gabi.
Nice easy flight up in Droughtbuster this am.

Elk expedition

Well, most of you know I'm at the ranch hunting for a nice fat bull elk. Well, having a great time, working hard, no bull yet though. The scenery is beautiful, and it's too bad it takes a hunt trip to see this creation in such an early morning moon well before dawn, then just before, hence the pics from the high lonesome country.
Day 1, saw two bulls, Tussling, long ways off. Long day, was up at 2:40.
Day 2, more up and down ridges, climb mountains, surprised by 5 bulls in timber. Fired off a round real quick, no further opportunities as everyone ducked for cover!
Day 3, long early am hike, glass up a bull at 1300 yards. We crept within 416 yds, great shot resolution, missed twice. I'm usually a fair shot, so when we got down we both checked Bobby's scope, way off. So, now using Sterling's rifle!
Day 4, today, another long hike,  saw no bulls but glassed up a beautiful Big Horn sheep ram. He came right at me, got within 200 yds, so I whistled and then he saw me. We just looked at each other a few minutes, talked a while, then he slowly turned and moved off. A really neat experience.
Tomorrow, another day, will meet Sterling at Three am for another drive down the Blue, back up into the Blue Primitive Area. Exhausting, freezing, early am, but beautiful and worth every effort.
Love to all, will k.i.t.
