next are the memories of my dad carrying me on his back through the marsh to the blind. me shooting decoys with my BB gun, shooting my first duck with my dad with his crack barrel .410 his dad gave him, my first youth model 870, etc.
i will be bringing a little one into this world at the end of september, and i cannot wait to share these memories with him/her. i just hope one day that he/she will cherish the stories from his/her grandfather one day as i did.
the moments shared with family in the outdoors are like no other.
P.S. great picture man.

I'm excited to see you and Sonya's baby Chris. Going to be awesome. You will love it.
My mom still has some pics and old reel movies of our grand dads fishing in big lake catching tarpon. They had some good times.
My son is now 2 weeks old and I'm excited just as you are quackhead. Congrats on the baby and Chris hope to see yours soon.
