Our Claim to Fame (in Green River)



April 1999

In our town of Green River. Outdoor activity is fairly popular. Saturdays are spent out on the lake and everyone is in anticipations for Hunting Season. I think what gave our family the uniqueness that is talked about was when our family traveled to Northern Wyoming to do a Turkey Hunt. Most people we know don't travel to go hunting. You wait for hunting season. You put in for a license. If the state does not draw your name, then you do what is called a General Hunt. Which the state has designated areas where you can hunt with a "general tag". For my family that was NOT enough!

The first Turkey Trip was the spring of 1999 . When this trip turned out to be a success and a lot of fun. It became a trip that was repeated every Spring. The first year the turkeys were shot with rifles. The next year was an attempt with bows. Every year was a different adventure. The first was a new experience. We were trying something new in a unfamiliar area. As always in hunting you never know what to expect. The animals are always unpredictable but that's what adds to the excitement.
