all thats missing is the drum roll
well, didn't get any suirrels, saw a couple but no clear shot. Was a fantastic time though. At one point my son and I were walking a trail slowly, and I saw a squirrel running on the ground. I couldn't get a clear shot and then I didn't see it anymore. I told him to stay put andwatch the area as I walked a little farther ahead and it might show itself to him. I walked about 20 yards and turned around...
There he stands, alert and looking for the squirrel. Right behind him on the trail is a doe 15 yards away looking at him. I nearly fell over.

I got his attention and motioned for him to look behind him. His eyes about popped out of his head. Closest he has been so far to a live deer. Tried to get my phone out and get a picture but the doe walked off to quick. Would have killed to get that pic.
Anyways, we had a great time and a story we always remember. But I'll still look for a smoked squirrel recipe.
