Hog-Hunting

Went hog hunting last night with Pastor Larry and my dad. It was awesome. We were in the middle of the woods; there was a lot of cloud coverage, therefore, not a lot of visability. I could hardly see the ground, let alone any hogs. It was cool to be in the middle of this little forest and not being scared of what I could not see. Walking back towards the car Pastor Larry finally shining the light to see our footsteps, shines the light up towards a tree. Where, there was a spider web with a spider that was the size of my fist. It was then that I realized that there are things in this forest that were "creepy and crawly". Before that moment I walked fearlessly into the dark not watching where I was walking, other than to step-lightly so the hogs wouldn't hear us coming. I love the "natural-silence" of the forest.

Next time we go out, however, I hope to hear the loud blast from the gun as Larry takes down a hog!

  1. It was great... Nothing like not getting one to motivate me to want to get back out there and change the story's ending.
