    Well done mate, you can't put a price on shared experiences like that. Both of you deserve a pat on the back ! ( and a marshmellow ! )

    Awesome way to keep her keen and an enjoyable experience. Keep it up. Amazing how energetic they are.
    Can see Dougie bouncing along a track with Black Beauty and popping marshmallows


    Noticed her drink bottle with the roll back top and straw.
    Recently we took our little one to Nelson to meet Great Grandparents. Mid flight we got out the half filled bottle. Just like your one. Rolled back the top, straw straightens and a geyser of water came out. The difference in half filling the bottle at home and opening it in a pressurized cabin

    Best post on the forum in ages. Warm fuzzies mate. Perhaps made all the more special as I know the Makahu area so well and have a 9 month old boy I can hardly wait to take on similar adventures. Big thumbs up GWH

    Gold. I tried to turn my daughter into a hunter too! Partially successful, son is right into it though.

    It's awesome to see them asleep in the car, aye.

    Good on Ya GWH

    That's what life long memories are made of.

    I can still remember Hunting with my Old Man when I was just a few years older than your Daughter.

    Mark if your reading this "Don't Forget my Sprinkles and Mellows" on our next trip mate.

    Cheers
    Pete

    Simply fantastic GWH. Special in the extreme.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms
