Guided Hunting

 The past week, Kade and I were able to go and be guides with a friend for a CWMU unit.  There are hunters who come from all over and hunt, and we happended to get some really fun hunters, Gary and Dave.  They were a blast!  We had lots of fun!  I was the camp cook and Kade helped guide them during the day. And on the down time, when the elk are sleeping, the pellet guns came out and there was some competitions that began, with pepsi cans, bottles, and squirrels.......

 I was able to take Shilo with for the week, and she was my BEST buddy!  She followed me around wherever I went and was so good!!! She even laid down by me while I cooked and didn't beg for food :)  GOOD DOGGIE! :)

There is a european elk mount hanging on the tree at camp, that was kinda cool.  Kade decided to shoot his bow while we had some down time, well, he's pretty much Robin Hood......he split his arrow straight down the middle.  The knock was even pushed down the shaft.  So we decided to add to the decor at camp and put his arrow up on the elk antlers!.....adding a nice finishing touch :)

 This is actually elk number 2 that we got for Gary.  Nice bull! Way to go Gary!!!!! 

 This was actually on our drive home, and not the greatest pictrure, but I snapped it in front of Kade's face, out the window, as he was driving.  The colors are just amazing! I seriously can't believe how beautiful it is right now!

 This was our little home for a week.  They are the warmest little cabins ever.  I didn't get cold one of the nights we where there!  They are so well insulated, that they stay so warm in the night and so cool in the day. 

 As the camp cook, I'm alone about 6 hours of the day, so I have lots of things to get done, like reading, movies.....and whatever I bring to do :)  One of the days, I noticed some antilope walking by camp, so I decided to watch them.  They are so pretty I think.  I actually really love their coat.  Very unique.

This was our camp site.  I love how its tucked into the trees.

 Inside our little cabin.  During the day, I would mostly read and watch movies, while Shilo slept on the floor by me, on her blanket.  She was a great pal to be with!

I seriously can't get enough of the fall colors. They are just beautiful! Amazing! Stunning! LOVE IT!

And this was elk number 1 of the week.  Way to go DAVE!!!!!!!  Wahooo!!!  He was with Kade when he shot so it was a pretty cool experience!  This was also a very nice bull! :)  Good times being home, thats for sure!  I'm loving the mountains, being with the family, and just being able to be in our home.  It feels really good and I'm ready to be here for a while! :)
