Huntin’ Time Expo/My Lack of Posts
It's absolutely no secret that I've been neglectful of this blog lately.
Some evidence:
I never posted a few of the deer that Justin shot.
I didn't post anything about Jeff, Barry, Erin, and Josh heading down to the ATA show in Columbus a little over a week ago.

Congrats to Jeff. Welcome to the dark side, and say goodbye to Powerbelts.
