Memories from a country boy!!!


Awesome idea, I am busting up just thinking about all of these things!
-Building huts, man did we build huts!
-Especially the hut that was out in Valeras field across from the red house, basically a huge hole in the ground with a bunch of wood over the top. Yeah, trying to build fires in there, kept smoking myself out, no chimney!
-Feeding jalapenos out of the Tuttles garden to the Rushtons cows and listening to them try to huck it back up
-Mom running over the Rushtons dog
-me and phil catching mice and creating a mouse catapult which consisted of a willow with a spoon duck taped to the end. we soaked the mouse in lighter fluid and lit it, bombs away mouseeee!
-playing dodge the big orange cushion on the tramp at the tuttles and watching courtney wack adrienne of the tramp resulting in a broken arm
-Having to cut my own willow for a lashing in the garage for leaving joni home alone, dad saying" make sure its big enough or i'll cut it for you!"
-asking for permission to swim in the lovells pond, not getting it, going anyway, getting caught, mom finding out, getting grounded, and mom making me walk up to denise lovell and apologize.
-shed hunting!!!!
-going to delta with grandpa condie and mom right before he passed away, walking into the grocery store there and g pa's sweat pants fell all the way down to his ankles! His response, "Damn things wont stay up!"
-grandpa buying me a rod and reel at delta sports on the same trip, still have the rod and reel, caught hundreds of fish on it.
-grandpa condie telling me to shoot hen pheasants for practice
-me, dad, tyler, uncle richard, randy, sand dune pond, sky went black with ducks, 12 shots fired, picked up 58 ducks. Awesome!
-plucking ducks
-dad blasting the antelope
-muzzleloader hunting with dad, he shot one and made me wait by the truck until it was finished off, tyler got to go, not fair.
-blacky and chief
-building a hut with teeples and kalan and calling it H2O because we needed a code word that signaled going to the hut so scott nixon wouldnt follow us, we would say, man i need some H2O, we would leave and meet up at the hut.
-tylers pumpkin incident, years later my friends wanting to through dead rabbits off the same overpass, yeah i left didnt want mr police officer showing up at the house.
-shooting my first buck deer with dad, it was a pretty dang good shot
-fishing in the boat, everyone sleeping, me fishing
-going to the res in delta and joni screaming bloody murder when dad would make her ski
-the el grande
-tammy knockers, tammy hitting josh and derek on top of the head with her knuckle

-fishing at corn creek
-tying joni to the banister and the basketball hoop on sundays when we werent old enough to go to choir
-CHOIR!
