Thanks to all for the compliments.

navyhunter--You have a PM.

Blacktailer--Cape buff are the only way to go. It's fun to see the looks on peoples' faces when they see them. I thought Boston was the center of the liberal universe.

I'll get him some time next year, if all goes well.

Don't know the success rate. This one was a problem lion for which the Ministry issued a special permit. Six days of hard hunting and incredible good luck--mixed with some bad--brought him to bag.

As for the pose, he'll be standing on all fours, looking slightly left or right--I haven't figured that out yet--with that slightly open-mouthed, but purely regal, lion look on his face. No snarling or dramatic poses.

I really need a bigger place.

Graylake,

Thanks. I think my office is unique in the city. I figured that with one buff it would be unique, but just in case some other guy had one, I added the second to be sure. You should see the looks I get.

I killed that muley in southeastern Alberta, near Kitscoty, right next to the Saskatchewan border a few years ago. You grow some big deer up there!
