Well he was....now it's on to the deer though......we need some deer meat and then he might go fishing again. lol..

The hand still isn't any better he's just trying to learn to deal without the thumb......He's still in therapy for it though and has to get a plate taken out sometime so well see how that goes....

I'm beginning to think the good Lord has plans for B's thumb having that lil stiff bend in it. One plan might be to use it like a shepherds crook on a lil blonde gal when she gets rollin' on the amaretto. :D:D:D
