Doug awoke from his post hunt nap

he was pleasingly quite the chatterbox, giving me superficially pacifying highlights. I was about to explode! I am so happy everyone had this grand adventure. From my own limited experiences I know things seldom go as planned but end up coming together as wonderful memories.

It seems Doug hunted with Dean quite a bit and really enjoyed it. I misunderstood a few days ago about the "death stick" it was Dean's rifle, not the camp gun I thought they were pushing on the guys. From what I hear the .300 Win. was a great saver for long shots. I've often heard the .300 is a fantastic Africa rifle and this only reinforces the notion. I must give this some thought.

I sit here armchair quarterbacking and thinking I have myself a plan but remember how tough it was when thousands are on the line. You forget to factor in the elements of tiredness, emotion, and that animals seldom just stop and beg to be shot. My goal is to take in all the wonderful stories and tid bits and hopefully make a dream trip of my own more fruitful.

Hat's off to the boys, they all moved up into the "Been to Africa" club fewer men belong to today. That's big stuff to me.
