The Ranch

Our travels continue, this weekend to Horsefly Mountain Ranch in Goldthwaite, TX. Family friends of the Bowens graciously invited us to their outdoor haven for a couple days of hunting, small town shopping, and relaxation. Their ranch house is absolutely amazing - spacious, secluded, quiet, with nothing around except wildlife and open plains.

The guys "caught" 7 deer total, which means we'll have another tasty year of venison sausage, jerkey, etc. I am scarred by images of blood and water [melted ice inside the deer] spilling out the back of Rich's truck as we followed him back to Dallas, but have to remind myself that a hunting is a much better method of population control than Bambi starving to death from hunger due to limited natural resources.

Thank you a hundredfold to the Smiths for their hospitality! All in all - a great Bowen family weekend with lasting and fun memories!
