The Second Week of Deer Camp

Second Week of Deer Camp  

By: Da Yoopers

CHORUS:

IT'S THE SECOND WEEK OF DEER CAMP

AND ALL THE GUYS ARE HERE

WE DRINK PLAY CARDS AND SHOOT THE BULL

BUT NEVER SHOOT NO DEER

THE ONLY TIME WE LEAVE THE CAMP

IS WHEN WE GO FOR BEER

THE SECOND WEEK OF DEER CAMP

IS THE GREATEST TIME OF YEAR

Years ago my friend Karen called me from Meeker, Colorado and sang this chorus to me.  I think that it sums up the weekend at the Sandcastle.  

Dad, Gus, Glenn, Kris, Kyle, Jack & Gage, Andy & Alyxis, Ryan were all there Friday night.  Dad reports that they played much Poker and that by the end of the weekend Alyxis and Jack were playing some very competent Cribbage as well.  The new barstools were well used by the time the weekend was over, and modifications are being planned to make them a bit more comfortable.

Lexie bagged her buck inside the cabin.

Here are a few more photographs taken by Kris during the second weekend of hunting.

Many thanks to Kris for supplying these great pictures from the hunt, 2011.

Just to be sure that these are saved, I am posting the original sketches that Gus made before the remodel of the Sandcastle.  I'm planning to do a bog entry later documenting the progress.
