If your son needs to go wade through ice cold chest deep water, you been there, you done that, and you don't need to do it again.<BR/><BR/>I know you think you can't fly anymore, but I still think you'd get a kick out of glider flying and it requires no medical certification, and there's room for an o2 bottle right where the collective oughta be.<BR/><BR/>Let's think up things you CAN do!The Truthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10933699070255566501noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166385009544212704.post-27845554617647560972008-12-03T12:46:00.000-06:002008-12-03T12:46:00.000-06:00You don't need to shoot a duck to prove you are a ...You don't need to shoot a duck to prove you are a man. Raising a son who has that much love, respect and character is what makes you a man, and you are a damn (sorry for the "French") good man at that.<BR/>Maybe you should ask Santa for a Wii....I think there is a duck hunting game on there!<BR/>This is a fabulous post.

But, like Nancy said, maybe you can do parts of it that aren't so tiring? And by the way, you have a wonderful son, and I can tell you raised him right by the awesome words he said to you!<BR/><BR/>Hugs,<BR/>Colleen :)Colleenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02619732913623023461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166385009544212704.post-31285010193387644412008-12-02T16:50:00.000-06:002008-12-02T16:50:00.000-06:00Well where is my wet noodle when I need it... need...Well where is my wet noodle when I need it... need to use it on you -- dang it man <B>YOU SHOULD KNOW BETTER</B> I hate to tell you this <B>BUT</B> you really should learn you can only do so much. With what Steve said to you, you should realize you are a manly man you taught your sons well and I know you are proud of them. Being disabled does not make you less of a hunter or less of a father. It's time to listen to your sons. <BR/><BR/>I was going to delete all that I just wrote above but I'm not. Seems we all learn the hard way -- key word there is <B>learn</B>. I have done similar myself and received a good lecture from my doctor as well as family. We need to learn our limits and I still have a hard time. Guess we want to show the world that we still can...<BR/><BR/>Do as Nancy suggested, go to the spot with ATV access or stay at the hunting camp and think up some good ol' boy stories. You're so good at that.<BR/><BR/>SMILE - IT'S CONTAGIOUSMerlehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00588091761593822945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9166385009544212704.post-31013564450208027862008-12-02T10:02:00.000-06:002008-12-02T10:02:00.000-06:00Your son's response is a tribute to you as a fathe...Your son's response is a tribute to you as a father. You raised a wonderful young man! That is quite an accomplishment.<BR/><BR/>Don't give up duck hunting, just go to the spot that has ATV access.
