I spent all November at my South Dakota house. My family traveled to spend the holiday with me. It was the first time my wife and step kids had been to the house. It was also the first time the boys hunted wild roosters so they were both really excited.
My wife loves holidays so she decorated for Thanksgiving. She cooked a fantastic meal while I took the guys hunting. Last year I spent this time alone so it was really nice to have them here.
Colby shot several pheasants. He has wanted a coyote so badly and he killed a coyote as a bonus when it ran out of the grass 25 yards in front of him. I was tickled that he had the composure to shoot it instantly with two shots. He's getting it tanned.
Hunter killed a limit his second day out. He was very proud of his shooting.
