Made a trip
We left work 9/2/11 at around 5:45pm. We switched all through the night to make it to Missouri at approx 4:45am 9/3/11. Got a few hours shut-eye and left for Pawnee Illinois at lunch time. Made it there in record time (3 and 1/2 hrs). Visited with family and had a great time. Left Pawnee on 9/5/11 en-route for Harrick, IL. Met some more of Jackie's family and they had a pond. THANK GOD, Finally, I get to do some fishing. Boy was I wrong. Hada cheap wal-mart frog tied on and walked down to the pond. Nothing but bull frogs. This ought to be fun trying to catch these suckers, I thought to myself. Man, these frogs were slamming my smaller imitation frog. I caught 3 in 45 minutes. Didnt keep any because I didnt have an ice chest. Talk about redneck ?? This guy right here had the whole family rolling over this. We left Harrick, IL at around 2 pm and made it back to Missouri. Visited some more of Jackie's friends on Tuesday and left Wednesday AM at 3:30. Made it back safe and sound without any incident. Pics are attached. BTW, I know where I will be deer hunting and Elk hunting at from now on. Arkansas and Missouri are LOADED !!!!

There were deer "hits" for 900+ foot on the interstate. You can see point of impact and the blood trail for a good 300 yards or more. Jackie said, "The deer here arent what they are in LA. You hit one in LA, you need a replacement grille, a headlight and a radiator, you hit one here in MO, your needing a new vehicle".
I have to agree with her on that one. I seen a doe the night going up there that gave me buck fever, that thing looked 200+ lbs.
