Puttin' on the camo'

The main reason we braved the elements was to come help celebrate Linda's brother's fiftieth birthday. Hunting is a major pasttime for him (and many of his friends) so we were instructed to wear whatever camoflage we could. Between us, we had nothing so we went out and picked up a couple of sweatshirts for the gig. We fit right in and it was a good time.

One of the fun aspects of this party was the variety of garments that people showed up in. Many jackets, pants, gloves, and sweatshirts were seen. Several caps had camoflage themes, one with the "G" of the Green Bay Packers. (Evidently deer aren't frightened by the Packers either.)

We also learned that a number of the hunters had been successful earlier in the day and the deer that would normally be hanging in the garage, our party location, were hanging in the shed instead.

Linda had alerted me to not assume that any meat served had come from the corner grocery story. More likely, it had be harvested by someone at the party. It was all good to me! Quite a good time was had by all.
