Well, it took me 3 years to do it, but I am finally back to being a Coloradan. Unfortunately, I was unable to accomplish this in time to make a decent hunt, so I guess it will be wild hog this winter somewhere east of town and coyotes if I can find a place, till next spring at least.

Now that I am home again, it is time to take stock of my supplies and see what I need to hit up Santa for this Christmas. I am probably only missing a few less essential knick-knacks, but it is good to take inventory and check on the condition of things for some peace of mind.

In the meantime, I am going to have to rathole enough money away to make my next big hunt a good one. I am also going to have to do some networking and see if I can find some new people to hunt with. Many of my previous contacts I discovered are not going to work out as I'd thought, so it looks like I will have to start over here.
