    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!

    My Xmas and New Year Break

    Cheers for the comments guys. Was a very enjoyable break, next time we'll hopefully spend a bit more time on the yaks and MTB. We have some spectacular scenery in NZ and are quite privileged to be able to access it so easily, gathering meat and seafood from it is icing on the cake!

    On another note, my sister came over for a hunt last night. It pissed down all evening, and we got soaked! Hadn't seen anything for a couple hours hunting, then at deer o'clock we found two young animals sitting under the scrub less than 50 yds from us. Jess loaded her rifle and proceeded to shoot the youngest one square in the chest dropping it on the spot. Free standing, no rest. Two for two, I was happier than her I think! While we dealt with it 3 more came out of the bush, just to top off a great hunt.




    Hahaha! Ill refrain from commenting on the looks of my sister... put it this way, with two older brothers with high standards, potential boyfriends have plenty of boxes to tick on the suitability test. She's a great kid.
    I'm drawn to the mountains and the bush, it's where life is clear, where the world makes the most sense.
