The Lord gave me success this deer season. Jacob used these words to decieve his father in Genesis 27:20 Isaac asked his son Jacob, "How did you find it so quickly, my son?" "The LORD your God gave me success," he replied. Jacob lied. He wasn't serving wild game. He was serving a young goat taken from his father's flock. His mother prepared it and dressed him up so that he felt like and smelled like his brother. Jacob decieved his poor old feeble blind father. But his statement "God gave me success" is meaningful. Isaac did not balk at that statement because God can give a hunter success. God gave me success this season. The Lord gave seven deer and the last deer was a six point buck. My freezer is full and I'm eating deer meat (not goat) almost every day. It's really good. There is something special about eating the meat you hunted and killed. After every kill and before every meal I said a prayer of thanksgiving. It was a great season. I didn't get the monster I was hunting but I got a good buck. I'm tagged out and my season is over.

Six Point Buck (Deer #7)

I've killed 6 deer this season
I've killed 6 deer this season. I killed four in WV and two in Ohio. My freezer is full! I'm sharing the meat with some friends. I have one more month to bow hunt in Ohio. For three years I've been hunting a buck that is larger than the one in the picture above. He's a huge monster and I pray I get him in January. At this time I'm sitting in a ski lodge at Seven Springs early this morning and I am thinking about the recreation that I am enjoying with my family and the deer hunting that I have enjoyed this past fall - my heart is filled with gratitude. Thank you Lord!
From Seven Springs Ski Resort (PN)
We are skiing Seven Springs. Carl and Sharon (Kim's parents) gave the girls a ski trip for Christmas! They are so generous. The girl's cousins Ally, Emma and Dillon are here and the girls always have a great time with their cousins. Carl just took Darren to Pittsburgh and is on his way back to Seven Springs. Pray for Darren, he's headed for Germany because he was deployed by the US military. Sharon, Kim, the girls and their cousins are asleep and I woke up at 6:30am and it snowed 15 inches last night and it's still coming down! Ski conditions are going to be great today and 7 Springs has night skiing so we can ski till 9:30pm. Last night Shayna had a little trouble on one of the slopes but it was so funny that we all stood at ski lift and laughed till it hurt. It was so much fun!
