Things That Make Me Happy

Recommended Posts

My wife and kids

Family

Friends

That moment when a dark canyon gets just light enough to start glassing

The stagger of a well shot animal just before if falls over

A light rain on a September elk hunt

The smell of the desert as the first rain moves in

Rolling into camp the first day and reconnecting with long time friends

Seeing former students succeed as adults

Good dogs

Parrot Head music, a cold beer and the sun going down

The simpler things (beyond the obvious)

 

Opening morning

 

The perfect stalk

 

The salty almost rotten smell of the marina when you are getting on the boat to get on a 3/4 day fishing trip

 

Smell of coffee perking in the cold darkness of a autumn morning

 

The truck after a long hike

 

Success

My wife was so bent out of shape over the Orlando carnage, she went to Cabelas today and bought me another AR 15. :)

Hunting with my friend Rudy

Horses

Amazing groups during load development

Shooting/reloading

Reading and learning about more about reloading/shooting

The list could go way on... I'm so blessed!

Cubs will find a way to blow it. Vikings might be a pinch better than last year ,so thats not enough. The Packers and vikes can beat each other up so When they come here in Jan. we can clobber them. Oh this is about what makes me happy. Seeing my 26 year old Son yesterday in Palm Springs for the first time since November when We were in North Dakota and He went to L.A. area for Alcohol and depression rehab and I came back to Phoenix. He is now an assistant running the halfway house and as clean and happy as could be living in Hunington beach. One more son to go now. If we can fix Him and get the Wife down here from Dakota life will be Happy. One step at a time sometimes. I allways have that saying, its a great day to be alive...............BOB!

My son. He's the only thing that makes me truly happy, every single day. Hunting is fun, blah blah blah bit nothing brings me joy like my little boy.

The smell of breakfast on Saturday and Sunday when all my boys are home. The way my wife tells me I'm her best friend after 22 years of marriage. The blue of the sky over the white mountains, and the promise of my Lord, Jesus Christ to carry me through the rough parts of life I couldn't navigate without Him.

Seriously though,

 

Releasing that arrow or hand rolled bullet on a critter after a years worth of preparation and tuning and watching it impact vitals!

 

And this!
