Dad and his 2011 Montana Moose.  Greatest hunting experience of my life.
I didn't say it was your fault, I said I was blaming you.
If I ageed with you, then we'd both be wrong.

The November Photo Contest closed at midnight Nov 30th per contest rules.

Quote
-Entry Deadline is midnite of the last day of the month in order to qualify for that month's contest.

Sorry for not getting to this sooner, I was busy cow elk hunting in Utah.
FYI - Since seaduckhunter's photo can not be entered, it can be used in future contests.

I will get the poll up to choose this month's winner ASAP.
