Antelope hunting in Wyoming

The week of Oct. 1, 2008, Mike and the boys went to Wyoming with Mike's dad and brother, Brian. The boys stayed with Elder Rice's (an elder who served in our ward) family. They were awesome. We started out opening day of antelope season, and killed three antelope in a matter of 45 minutes. It was the best time ever. Special thanks to the Bill and Cindy Rice who were awesome!!!!! They even gave dad Sugar Smacks for breakfast.

After the hunt, we returned to Utah passing several historical monuments of the church where the pioneers had passed. Independence Rock contained the names of numerous pioneers, Pony Express and U.S. servicemen who had passed through the area. They had etched their names in the rock. Many of them were dated in the 1850's.

On Saturday, we went with Brian's old companion, Tim Patrick, duck hunting. After walking for about two miles through some ba_l busting swamps, we finally arrived and hunted the heck out of the ducks. Out of the five of us, we all killed our limits of 7 a piece, for a total of 35 ducks. It was the best duck hunt we had all ever been on.

La semana de Oct. 1, 2008, Mike y los ninos fueron a Wyoming con el papa de Mike y su hermano Brian. Manejaron como 21 horas y se quedaron con una familia miembros de la iglesia, padres de uno de los misioneros que sirvio hace poco en nuestro barrio. Les trataron super bien. Tambien su cazeria fue exitosa. El primer dia de la temporada dispararon 3 antilopes en los primeros 45 min. Muchas gracias a Bill y Cindy Rice por recibir a mis boys.

Despues de la cazeria, de regreso a Utah pasaron por varios monumentos históricos de la iglesia, donde los pioneros caminaron hace muchos anios. Pueden ver algunas fotos de Independence Rock (Roca de la Independencia) donde estan inscritos nombres de muchos pioneros, militares y jinetes de Pony Express. Muchos de los nombres fechan los anios 1850.

El sábado para terminar su semana fueron a cazar patos con Brian y sus amigos. Tuvieron que caminar 2 millas por pantanales hasta llegar al lugar junto al lago salado. Hubieron 5 cazadores, cada uno de ellos mató su limite de 7 patos e hicieron un total de 35 patos. Mike dice que ese ha sido la mejor cazería de su vida..... que hicieron con los patos???? regalaron a una familia mexicana!
