My Son Tyler has a buddy that is eat up with being in the outdoors, problem is his dad is in Texas and they do not have a very good relationship. Dalton really wants to hunt and fish with us and so starting this weekend it starts. He needs to learn gun safety and woodsmanship skills.

Saturday we will sight in the .22 rifles and I will teach him gun safety and what I expect from him. Before the end of squirell season we will go out and try our luck at hunting them. Then we will get ready for turkey season. Fishing will be right around the corner and then we will prepare him for a Hunter Education class. Something tells me I better count on my .270 being used this year by Dalton. I guess I better prepare to bow hunt all next year or buy another rifle.

Many times the missing element with kids is a mentor. Dalton will get a fair shake of the outdoors if he wants it and I am sure many good lessons along the way. Wish us luck as we embark on a new challenge and hopefully some memories we will all have for eternity. This like others will be a good year. \:\)
