Cord got a nice buck on the very last day of his hunt! He had hunted a few weekends before but he just needed me and the kids to go with him to bring him some luck! It worked! He got this nice 29" 3x4!
He was with my Dad and Casey the weekend before when a storm had come through and it was cold - temps in the teens! Are you warm now Dad?
Cord usually has a few funny stories to tell when he gets back from a hunting trip. He told me one about a morning that the 3 of them headed out on the Rhino. Casey was riding in the back. They had gone through a gate and Cord had assumed that they would leave the gate open so he kept driving. About 20 minutes later, my Dad got out to open a gate and when he came back he said, "where's Casey?" So they turned around and didn't find Casey until they got back to the trailer. Casey had got out to close that first gate! After yelling and probably throwing a rock or two to try to get their attention without any luck, he hiked back to the trailer.
And on another trip a few weeks earlier, my Dad got out to close a gate. He was behind Cord, so Cord wasn't watching him but after a minute of him not returning Cord turned around to see him lying in the dirt. Cord asks, "what happen, ya fall down?" My Dad doesn't answer, just gets up, brushes off and gets back in the Rhino. Then he answers, "no I was just having a little rest in the dirt."
The weekend we went up with Cord, I told him I was not opening any gates for him because I would either fall down or he would drive off and leave me.
Coy had fun driving the Rhino!
Funny story when Coy was driving . . . I was in the passenger seat with Dane on my lap. We stopped for a minute to wait for my Mom & Dad to catch up with us but they weren't coming so we were driving backwards down the road to try to find them. Dane got a very concerned look on his face, looked over the door at the ground and then turned to Coy and said "Co, whad ya do?" He must have thought she really messed up our Rhino!
