4 more days until we leave for the Steens Mts for a week of archery hunting for deer and elk. What will make this a fun hunt is 5 of our kids, their spouses and their kids are all going. I got so excited today I went to Sportmans Warehouse in Albany and bought a portable outhouse and got two toilet seats that snap on top of a commercial size 5 gallon bucket, and I bought a quart of the blue chemical to put onto the bucket. I have been shooting my bow every day, and I am cranking up the poundage a bit everyday to. My brother Matt made me a very nice walking stick to use when I go out in the sage brush and rim rock hunting. I am very unstable on my feet on uneven ground but with the use of this walking stick I should be fine. I have been riding my stationary bike so much I will be in good shape for going down in some of those canyons. The excitement of going on a trip like this pretty much consumes my thinking. With just about every thing I do the plan of the trip is way more exciting than the actual event itself. One major exception to that is when Jesus comes back and takes believers to heaven with Him and we get our new body. I am excited about that, but the reality of it is going to be so far beyond anything we could ever imagine,
