Bethel Bull, Almost Didn't Happen!

[et1702]

>et702, I lost my oldest sister to Ovarian cancer in 1984, she was 38.  My wife also has terminal Breast cancer. Her cancer was found in 2006and they said they took care of it, found it had returned undetected in 2010. It had spread to her rt. lung, rt. kidney and pelvic bones. It will take her from me sometime in the future, just don't know when. We live one day at a time. That's hard to say the least. Thought we would grow old together. Guess its not to be. Her disease is stable for now, but who knows when it won't be.
But thanks guys for your concern.

One day at a time is same thing we are doing too.  Hard doesn't even begin to describe it, especially after finding "the one" and realistically knowing your not going to grow old together.  We are both about 50yo, but that is still too young.  My wife is a strong and beautiful woman and I still don't know what I've done to deserve her!  The hardest part is trying not to let cancer control our lives, but there are constant reminders everyday and we know it will take my wife too.  Some things are just outside our control (which is the hardest part for both of us being Type A persons where there is nothing we can't do, if you really want too).  We are still fighting and not giving up or giving in to cancer, plus praying.  Currently, she will tell you she has a "Bucket" List and a (censored) F^*k it List.  Therefore, we are working on the Bucket list.  We leave for Mexico this Thursday evening!

Good luck to you on your hunt and I hope your surgery is successfull!  All the best to your wife too!

Take care,

Ed

You enjoy yourselves Ed. We enjoy being together as much as we can, been together 42 years, married 38. We are both 62, It's been a good ride.

its looking like both these tags are going to be soup bases.
Hot weather and nobody finding Elk.

they are up the 1500 road if anyone that knows where the bulls hang out & wants to go help and have fun.

Green ford 4x4 and trailer.
would hate to see these tags go to waste lol!

Go get em, fish seeker.  My prayers also that your upcoming doc visit result in a positive way.

 

I hope you get a good one.  Enjoy the hunt

Once the army hits the woods on Saturday they will start moving keep at it.

The convoy had the westbound lane of 12 stopped as they were turning onto the bethel rd about 30 min ago.

Keep up the fight

We had three any bull tags in there.  We ended up getting the only bull that we saw in eight days.  There wasn't much moving even after the general opened.  We feel lucky to have 1 out of 3 tags filled.  The weather was terrible...to warm!  Hang in there!

We were about 3 miles up the 1500 from hanging tree and didn't see one bull cruising the woods all week. Hope you guys had better luck.

Saw a cow and calf on Saturday of genral, had a few cows and a spike show up Friday. Elk4me sent it to the butcher! Prurty slim pickins. Nothing moving. Not many pumkins out there this year,Nobody seeing critters hanging  in camps DA it was to hot to hang. Elk4me's was at the butchers 4 hours after being dropped. Had a nice 5x5 on the WRONG side of the 1500Sat. evening. could not get him to cross. Think he liked the Bumping unit. It was sure nice to get out again after everything that has happened over the last few years.
