Crane Hunt

September, right after school started Jared went to Wyoming for the crane hunt. He was going with a buddy but the buddy decided to take his wife so I thought I'd join in on the fun since I had the days off. We went up after Jared got off work and drove to the huge town of Farson Wyoming. Jared and Jeremy talked to this guy that gave him permission to hunt their field and then we found a little spot to camp and slept in the bed of the truck. The next morning we got up hella early and Jared set up his blinds and his decoys and I laid in one of the blinds and fell asleep. It was freezing and I kept walking up and moving my toes to make sure they weren't frozen. After shooting started they had some geese come over and Jared and his buddy each shot one (it was an early goose hunt too). We waited for another couple hours and no cranes came over us so Jared and Jeremy went to go stalk some. This time me and Jody just hung out in the car and waited for the men to come back. After awhile we heard some shots and not too long after they both came up the road with a crane. Never in a million years would I have imagined myself laying in a duck blind, but I actually didn't hate it! I was so excited and proud of my hubby! It was some quality time together and that's what we needed!
Had to stop at Mcdonalds for 50 chicken nuggets on the way down..

Love campfires!
