Well, here I am in Wyoming antelope hunting by myself. It is beyond my understanding why I went to all the trouble of raising two kids if they weren’t going to help me when there is work to be done. Every morning I get up at 4:30 and cook my breakfast and then drive to the hunting site and spend 15-20 minutes unloading all my gear by myself and setting up the rifle. I even have to do all the spotting, ranging and camera work as well as the shooting.
So after doing all of that work you would think that at least one of them would be there to handle the other half of the work which is hauling them back to the truck, skinning them, and cutting them up to put in the cooler. OH NO, that is not the case. The deerslayer, she is in school and my lazy son is down at Camp McCall for three weeks of milk and cookies and roasting hotdogs around the campfire every night. I lead a hard life and retirement is just a lot of work with no kids to help with the work. Nobody ever gives me ice cream and a night-night story in the evenings
So here I go to haul in the small antelope that I shot at 1006 yards with a 240 Weatherby.

And here I come up the hill all by myself doing all the hard work.

Two days later--- Here is a heavy buck I have hauled out from about a mile back in after shooting it at 535 yards. There is no one to grab the horns and no one to grab the legs and throw him up onto the carrier but me. Where is everybody when I need some heavy lifting done?
Here is a video of the buck!!!!

Go get your foot x-rayed and see if it is stress fractured.
