This coming Tues is second meeting on our problems with coyotes and declining deer population. Hopeful that it will be another productive evening.

Tommorow night is time of reflection and celebration. If you are going to celebrate make sure you have a plan. Don't drive if you have been celebrating. I want all my friends back for the new year and those new friends I am meeting next year.  Have fun but be safe!

It was a positive meeting. Since we do have some anti-hunters checking our sites, I will not get into details but It is about time we had intelligent conversations about a real problem. We had a huge winter kill of deer last year that something had to be done. Thank you all that had some input on our problem.

We are going to have a meeting to address an issue with our population of coyotes in our state. Our Deer population is dwindling.  I would like input on ways to have people interested in hunting coyotes.

For most hunting season is a memory this year. For some it was a total success for others it was an oops. One thing is clear, being safe in the woods, allows all to be around to have these memories.  Practice safety for our next generation of hunters and we will have positive experiences.

Just recently, on the news, a little girl was asked what she wanted for Christmas.  She mentioned a truck and her daddy home for Christmas.  She got her wish.  I remember my Christmas away from family. Freedom comes at a price. Spend a moment to remember those away from their love ones this holiday season.

Have a good and safe holidays.
