Did anyone catch the story in dear Abby today about the girl who redid her boyfriends duckboat to get it ready for the season. Of course she wants to hunt with him. Now his buddy is jealous and got his nose all screwed on crooked over the deal. All I want to know is does she have a sister? Then again at my age maybe a mother? Can anyone scan this and post it? My scanner is toast besides I dont know how to use it anyway. Rich
 
Rich,

That's funny as hell. Now we all Dani is a trooper and I can tell you since I've hunted with her she'll go where a lot a guys won't but I saw the best one this morning. Getting ready to go out, I talked to a couple of guys and one of the guys wife was with them. It was probably around 9:30 and the action had ended so they start picking up decoys. I notice two in the boat and one pulling the boat around the decoys. Something seems out of place so I pull out the binocs and low and behold The gal was out of the boat pulling the two guys around while they picked up decoys. Hell I can't get my wife in the boat unless the sun is up. Forget 4:00am and 30 degrees!
 
Here ya go Rich. It almost seems like this is to good to be true.... BTW....you read Dear Abby???


DEAR ABBY: Because I love the out-of-doors, I volunteered to prepare my boyfriend's duck boat for the hunting season. I sanded, primed and detailed the boat and painted cattails on the sides. I bought seats, hardware, even made a full camouflage duck blind on my sewing machine. My boyfriend is elated and even more excited that I intend to hunt with him. His buddy is not. He has backed out of the hunting trips and refuses to talk to me about the issue.
Should I tell my boyfriend I have changed my mind and save their friendship, or go with him and reward myself for all my hard work? -- AMBUSHED IN MINNESOTA


DEAR AMBUSHED: Do not back out. The person your boyfriend's buddy should be talking to isn't you, it's your boyfriend. His behavior is selfish and childish. A compromise might be in order, but it won't happen unless "the boys" arrange it between themselves. So stay out of the line of fire.

Mike, Dear abby is right next to the obituary in my local florida paper. I read it (the obit) every morning to see if my name is in there.If not then I go to work. Rich
 
I have a friend whos girlfriend hunts with him. She is a natural blond and dyes her hair brown during duck season.
 
hahahahahah Ed, she's a smart girl....

given the choice of staying dry in my waders, staying warm by moving around or sitting in the boat, dipping my hands in and picking up decoys, wrapping line, getting my hands and sleeves all wet (because inevitably I do) and ultimately getting cold....I'd take the pulling the boys around in the boat any day...hahahahaha

Now that I know they are from Minnesota, it must be Ole and Helga! Hey, Rich, I was thinking that maybe this gal's grandmother might be the one!

My girlfriend loves to hunt with me. She doesn't like to shoot anything but she loves to wake up ridiculously early, set out decoys, and watch the birds fly in. She was a big bird watcher before we met. She could already identify every duck, goose, and ever other bird in existence that I don't even know about. She's my number 1 hunting buddy.
 
Al, while we are speaking about Ole and Helga, in one of my American history classes many years ago we were taught that Minnesota was originally settled by a group of Hardy, Robust Scandinavians with big barrel chests and thick hairy legs. Once they found out that they could make a living trapping Wolverines, they sent for their husbands. Rich

I heard the story told, but it was thick hairy chests, and big barrel bottoms. Hitch
 

Both of my daughters love to go duck hunting with daddy If I say I'm going hunting or fishing the girls start getting their stuff togethere to go with me, and my wife also loves the outdoors, she got up on her own Saturday at 6am got dressed and went behind the house and sat in her deerstand (didn't see anything ) she was 7 months pregnant last duck season and asked to go along and was a trooper even though none of her hunting clothes fit her(lol).
