This picture doesn't do justice to the beautiful view outside the ranch home we stayed in.
Checking traps near the feeders - a dead raccoon in this trap!
Jake and Lane hunted from this blind the last time they came to the Ellison Ranch. This was the first visit for Julie and Luke.
The
Ellisons are friends of ours from
TKD. They have two girls,
Bri and Lexi. Mom knows them well from watching the
TKD tests - Luke and
Bri have been testing partners several times. Chuck and his brother have homes on their ranch in Coleman County. The two homes are on 2,000 acres.
Filling feeders with chuck.
Headed out on a morning turkey hunt.
Mom, thanks for my shirt! I went out on one of the hunts!

While the boys did not get a turkey this time, they had great fun chasing several gobblers that came their way! Luke was just out of range of one of them - a gobbler chasing about 10 hens! We also saw deer and tons of cardinals, along with some quail. Thankfully, no mountain lions or rattlesnakes!
Chuck let the boys take his cart out and go hunting by themselves. They LOVED driving this cart around the ranch!
