[QUOTE="Coyboy, post: 92665, member: 3733"] [b]Re: Letter to Coyboy...about your father\'s recent passing[/b] Len, Thank you for the heart felt sympathy, you have mine as well. It's tough to be perched in a tree and not have memories of my parents. Some good and some not so good, but all very very special. The ashes of your Mother by the young tree is very special. Keep those big buck antlers away from it, and may that tree thrive and prosper. I know that feeling of newborn wildlife being so close. It gave me a new perspective on the game we love to pursue. When I was a teen my Dad showed me how to use his Minolta camera with its zoom lens. I came home in my early 20's to find my parents gone, and 3 fawns playing in their yard. I grabbed that camera and sat in the yard snapping pictures. I would manually advance the film and see the picture count climb. Soon the curious fawns came within feet of me. Jumping and playing as if I was one of them. I finished the role of film and soon the fawns worked there way into the brush behind the house. When Mom and Dad came home I was so excited. They told me that a doe had been hit on the road two nights earlier. I hoped that the very small fawns would survive but they were not seen again. As It may have been meant to be. My Fathers camera had no film. Thanks all, Jim [/QUOTE]
