Great post!  The only problem is your hunting stateside will never be the same. And you are going to try and get back to Africa again...and again...and again!

I'll just have to live vicariously through you. Great pics. Thanks so much for sharing. The money for my African hunt just got spent on an addition. Arrrrrrrrrg!

I thought I would go once and be happy. I was planning my second trip before I got home. I have been 4 times now.

I understand about planning the second trip before the first even ends.  Luckily for me I've got a wife who would love to go over there as well ................ I can't think of a better anniversary present.
