Courage, above all things, is the first quality of a warrior. --Karl von Clausewitz

Bravery, is not acting out of a lack of fear-that is easy;
it is having the ability to act despite one's fear.
-adapted from Ambrose Hollingsworth Redmoon

Life has a certain flavor for those who have fought and risked all that the sheltered and protected can never experience.
- John Stuart Mill

Road Kill Strikes Again

Many of you may not know about Bill's hobby... he has become quite good at finding fresh road kill. Well this past week has been a whopper. He got a 9 point buck earlier and then a 10 point. Needless to say we have been wanting to get deer heads for the mountain house and now we have them plus a story. The kids were really excited too!
