Hospice

I have finished my training to be a Hospice volunteer. I have wanted to do this for a long time but just never felt ready. Now I am and what a wonderful group of people!! I learned so much over the last three weeks. I know that Hospice was wonderful to my family during our loss of several family members. I hope that I can give back half of what I was given.

To Iowa and back

Our weekend catch

Two coons trying to hide

We all got to skip work and school last Friday Jan 29th to head to Iowa to do some hunting. Ashley got to stay home ( with no parties I hope) and do chore and work. Brett and Dustin talked Bob into sitting in the back so they would have more room up front. I had a great time with them up front. We counted dead animals on the road and they helped me look for cop's. We counted 28 dead deer 3 coons one skunk and 19 cop's. We listened to what ever kind of music we wanted and just had a great drive. We were all very excited to get the hell out of town. We got to Iowa about 1:00pm or so on Friday and jumped right in to hunting the dogs. We got 7 coons just on Friday and 23 on Saturday on one coyote. The man we stayed with was a very nice guy. On Saturday we got to chase coyotes first thing in the morning. I LOVE that!!!! Speed, fur and kill, what else could a girl ask for?? I look forward to our next trip!! By the way the ride home was not near as fun, Brett was sick and Bob and Dustin slept most of the way home.
