A good friend who I've know since 1978 and I have been rabbit hunting together since then..... When our kids were born a year and half apart when they were older they started rabbit hunting with us and we always went out Thanksgiving day for a rabbit hunt, we've always had beagles and the kids always looked forward too it more so than going out on the weekends rabbit hunting lol... This year is no differant other than we've added other friend too the mix.... We should have 5 total this year some come out and some fade away but we've always had my son and some of his buddies.... My friends son is living in VA now and rarely makes it home but always tells me how he misses it when I see him..... So tomorrow morning the tradition continues and we'll be walking behind the beagles Penney and Katey waiting for them to jump a cotton tail and see which of the boys will be first to get one.....The boys are now in their mid 20's and are just as excited too go as they were in the first years of taking them out... They always ask if we're still going out Thanksgiving and I tell them till the day I die.... :smiley_coolpeace:
