Ann-

Thanks for the note.

As much as I'd love to get out sooner than later, I have a child on the way, expected delivery date is right there in late June.

I'll keep an ear up to hear how your time out in Quebec was.
The travel, time away, and adventure of it all are definitely part of what I'm factoring in a bear hunt.
Also, this will be my first 'trophy' motivated hunt. Naturally I'll want the meat and to use as much of the animal as possible, but I'm also after a good pelt from the experience.

I think it'll do the kids good to have a rug in the house that'll give them a good spook from time to time.
