Since it is now public knowledge I thought I would share with the cwt community why I skipped out on fall hunts this year. If you are up at 7am Thursday morning look East down I-40 and if the conditions are right you will be in for one cool light show. If you have a early morning flight out of Sky Harbor, Albuquerque or El Paso I apologize for the delay. This will be the 4th rocket I launch out of NM for the US Army. It is an awesome job, but being away from the family for 6-7 weeks really takes its toll. I missed my sons first steps and my wife has been a single Mom this whole time. Believe me it was also hard watching my cousin go out on a late season bull elk hunt solo. He got his bull, so the excitement made up for me not hunting. I see tons of wildlife while working at Ft. Wingate though (see trailcam forum)
I should be sleeping right now, but my nerves are getting to me. I almost posted this topic in the "Prayers Request" forum.
I hope the link below works
