Coon Hunting

There were 13 of us on the coon hunt last weekend.  The weather was beautiful, no moon, no wind and a sky full of stars.  I just never get tried of looking at the stars.  Grandpa Dennis did a great job of explaining some of the star formations to Lucas.

 The dogs treed a couple of times, but we didn’t see any coon.  Both of these pictures show everyone shining their flashlights up trying to locate the coon.

This is Megan, Mason and Bubba.  

 This is Glen’s dog Slick.  Glen also brought his other dog Queen (also a Walker)  along, she’s getting pretty old.  Matt and Ross brought their Redbone dog, Ruby.  It’s great when you can hear the dogs in the distance baying because they found a trail or scent, lots of family out walking, talking and laughing together and with all the stars shining above . . .  it doesn’t get much better.

You can’t see much on this video but I recorded it for the sound.  The dogs!!
Matt is pulling Slick out of a fallen cedar tree.  No coon there either.
