The hunt has begun....

To Benji there are 4 seasons:  Winter, Spring, Summer and Fall Hunting!!  Much to his delight we've officially entered into Hunting Season.  He's had quite a bit of luck this season with small game.  Handful of squirrels, chipmunks and rabbits.  And squirrel stew.
John cracks me up.  He always.always. holds the animal like a toy.  Holding it in his arm like a baby kitten.  It took some serious persuasion on Benji's part to get John to hold the chipmunk like this. (smile)  But don't get the wrong impression.  He's still 110% a mighty hunter.  Sometimes Daddy and Benji try to sneak out the door early in the morning, but John is quick to stir and quick to dress to get out the door.
Now the countdown begins for rifle season...

do you really eat squirrel stew? what's that taste like?

@ Lani- yes we really eat squirrel stew. I think its a mind over matter, don't think about the fact that it's squirrel.. i really couldn't tell a difference in the stew from beef stew. i think eating it 'plain' would be alittle harder for me. i let the stew simmer all day in the crockpot.
