Enjoy seeing the pictures. I take lots now, but looking back through our albums the other day...made me wish, I would have taken more back when we had our other dogs. Talked to 2 people since Wednesday; one has a husband just a few yrs older than us that use to hunt coon. I thought great someone that could go with Chuck when I don't want to. But she said a knee operation didn't go according to plan and he wouldn't be able to go now. But she wanted me to send her a friend request on FB so she could show him pictures and video of our dogs. Then today, my SIL told me she was at the nursing home visiting another guy only a few yrs older than Chuck. He asked about us and she told him we were back into coondogs, she said that's all they talked about after that...his GLORY DAYS of coon hunting. She wants us to go over and show him pictures and videos of r dogs. Back in the 70's-80's this guy hunted with a guy named Herm and a gang of other guys. Chuck and I were out one night and Driz took off down the hollow, she was almost out of hearing, but was treeing. Chuck decided to take the truck around the rd instead of walking. On the way down, we heard a dog barking up a tree in a driveway. We slowed down and saw Herm's dogs treeing on a cat. 😊 Went down the rd another mile and Herm's gang was getting out of their vehicles to walk in on Driz. It sure made us smile to tell him where his dogs where. Just friendly competition between pleasure hunters when JUMBO coons were worth $50. Not sure what barncats were going for.
