I am overwhelmed by all of your responses! I feel like I just got out of church! It's hard because none of my huntin buddies have ever been or will probably ever go, and I don't really have anyone that can relate to how I feel until now. So I will continue in my quest to return again in the very near future and plan to do what ever it takes financially to go. Although most people see spending that kind of money as a bad investment, I see it as an investment to my mind and soul! I would rather spend every last penny I ever earn to go, than hoard 1 red cent. So as the time draws closer, hopefully in the next three years, I would like to seek some advice and opinions on my next trip. I know that there is a wealth of knowledge amongst all of you. You know what really gets me, we as men only have a certain number of sunrises and sunsets that we're allotted in this life, and I sure hate not seeing those from under an acacia tree.......thanks again.....wapiti7

Wapiti7,

This is how it was put to me...There are alot of talkers out there..." But Mike, you are a doer.."
You have said it and done it...

Mike

i never heard of anyone laying on their deathbed saying that they were sorry to have gone somewhere and done something rather than saving the money so uncle could have some more

Also never hear anyone on their deathbed say ,"I wish I would have worked more."
