As I said ...uneducated you are not. That was a nice discourse on hound hunting for deer. Ain't many people really understand the practice. Glad you posted that one.
We had some fellows that hunted coons at night riding mules after 'em. Can't much do it back in Md where I lived but it went on for years. Wasn't my cup of tea cause I really didn't care an awful lot for the mule thing. Went a couple of times, though.It was exciting when the dogs go the ol coon treed. Them darn mules were really smarter than horses too. They wouldn't run into a fence...or at least they never did with me. If it hadn't a been for the trees and bushes slappin my face er whatever I woulda probably gotten into it. But those guys I hunted with really liked it. They had more'n half a county to hunt at one time...'fore all the city folk started movin in.
An speakin of movin in.. Talked to my daughter in Md yesterday. Just around the town she lives near they are going to build more than 400 houses. Hell, that's more houses than there are people in the whole town. And Fabs will understand this 'un better than the rest of ya.. They are on the verge of building a whole (?city?) town on an area of farms that is 4 miles by 6 miles long...somewhat on the order of Columbia, Fabs! Columbia was an area between Baltimore and Washington DC that developers got ahold of and literally built a complete city in. Gonna do it down on the Eastern Shore. Not too far from the Chesapeake Bay Bridge. Them people gotta be able to go to work ya know!
