AtkinsonCancellation for 2006-Tanzania
Some of you have wanted to hunt with Pierre and we have been full for 3 or 4 months and only recently decided to do some limited double booking so may have a few spots there...
BUT, I just had a client cancell due to some business problems and at this early date I just refunded him his money as I have plenty of time to rebook that space....
It is 10 days from Oct. 22 to whenever..Charter flight in on the 21..
This is a prime time for good bulls as the area has been burned and the bulls are out on the new green and they are easy to spot in the morning and evening, plus the water is drying out and the plainsgame, buff and elephant are on the available water and of course the Lions and preditors will follow the game...

AtkinsonYour a funny guy John!

The hunt is sold to an outstanding native son of the soveriegn state of Texas..
A state that will forever remain hallowed ground to us whose legacy is there, whose kin died in the Alamo, and the family remains are in her soil, where I, myself, will repose in the future as my dear wife hauls my wrinkeled carcass back reminesent of Losome Dove! and runs an add in the Twin falls news selling African trophies, rifles, pistols, shotguns, saddle tac and rope horses!! Bless her soul.

AtkinsonI do get confused, but I have a good excuse, 71 years of hard roads and being put up wet too many times!

Ya know that brings on a question I would like anwered. Does anyone know if wooden box burials are allowed for someone not wanting to be preserved like a lab specimen?

RustyFrank you need to check your local laws. You can be buried in Texas without embalming, however certain proceedures must be followed.
As a matter of fact you can order your own casket online.

Yep. It's called "immediate take away" and is subject to regulations of the burial area, i.e., you may still need a sealed vault.

The best option is to donate yourself to a university forensic entomology research program. They need human bodies for collecting specimens under field conditions.
Way better to spend your funeral money on a new rifle or trophy fees and then when you die you're still useful for a while.
