The Wonder Pups ~ Just Wondering...
Margo,
Me and the "boys" have been taking advantage of these mild, sunny days. This morning we spent an hour or so in a Public Game Production Area just north of Eureka. I took the camera. As if I need to tell you: Boggs on the left; Ben on the right (they are the best of friends). . . simply checking out the wildlife on the far hill. We were a mile and a half from the nearest oil road. There are close to a hundred deer and hundreds of pheasant (mostly hens) wintering in the area . . . scratching and picking at soybean and wheat stubble. We get to share the place with them. The only way to get there is by snowmobile . . . or x-country skis. I do the skis . . . that way I can return home and . . . eat with both hands . . . a 6,000 calorie lunch.
"Retriever Journal" Feb/Mar issue (got it yesterday) included an article featuring Aberdeen, SD and concluded that it is the "Pheasant Capital of the World." Which means: next fall it could get even more crowded than usual our here. Eureka is an hour's drive from Aberdeen.
You might think the "boys" are interested in the scenery. But . . . I'm think'en that . . . the're wondering: "Will Margo be our Valentine?"
Hope all is well.
Peter, Boggs and Ben
