Hunting Season

The Knight tradition stands...Hunting season...a weekend of no sleep, eating a lot, getting up early (4am for the hunters, which is 2am CA time), guns, scooter adventures and Grand-kid heaven. Grandma Knight cooked up her usually array of good eats. Grandpa Knight got all the tree stands out, even for the little guppers. They were prepared for the kids and the grand-kids to come to town. We played in the fall leaves, watched Great Grandma Aten's slideshow, and spent time with the family. Dave even got a dear this year, a nine point buck actually! I say even, because he waits for just the right one and some years he doesn't get one at all. The right one crossed his path this year. Dave and Tony had to drag it up a ravine and down a creek bed to get it out of the woods.


As Christy said, "Hunters in Training)

Don't they look happy to be all bundled up:)


The girls:) My little California girl did not know what to do with the cold weather.


She didn't sleep at night, but she slept in the car and traveled well.
