Traipsing About Autumn

This autumn day starts with Dad's return from duck hunting. G's favorite thing about hunting season is checking out the game Dad brings home. This is a wood duck. And that is our duck retrieving Lab feeling a bit proprietary.


Next, we head out to scout another deer blind spot. The guys take their guns along with an eye out for grouse. Of course G's gun is a toy, but it makes him feel like it's just him and his Dad out doing guy stuff.


Found an ideal spot for a deer blind, but saw no grouse. Next, we climbed to a higher elevation in search of the perfect backdrop for a family portrait. We found the right backdrop. As well as a nice, fresh set of black bear tracks. Cool.
