Success is Hard to Measure.jpg

Sometimes we have a hard time measure success or we don't see our success. This morning Wanda and I went turkey hunting. We managed to get a couple toms talking but couldn't get them to come into my call. I could be saying that the hunt was a bust.

We got skunked; but it was still a successful day. It was a perfect Spring morning on the mountain; blue skies and fluffy clouds. The birds were singing. We had a great hike, enjoyed each others company and found a few pounds of wild Black Morel mushrooms along the way.

Turkey or not, it was another great day and that is what success is all about.

Bill and Wanda: Another interesting story and great viewpoint on life. You do realize that your pictures of this year's morels and last years morels are on the same page of your gallery! We need more frequent postings to keep up with the tales of you, your family, and all of Wanda's critters.
