Driving past the Carranza Memorial on Friday morning I saw a strange sight coming toward me. It was much larger than the horse trailers I usually see and as it got closer I realized it was a very nice, very large travel trailer. I've seen people camp out for deer week before but not this fancy. It headed in toward Batona Camp, followed by a truck carrying a Mr Bob portable toilet. I drove in Sunday morning and found the camp very well populated with trailers and tents.

When my oldest brother was alive, we bandit camped for a week of permit bow. We had a couple sites around Chatsworth, and a site near Greenwood. They were great trips: All night camp fires, then falling asleep in my ground blind. Bucket baths (Bud swore he took a picture of me one year, I begged him to throw it out!) Lots of good food (and some bad) cooked over a fire. The last year, when he was sick, we got a lean-too at Belleplain for the week, and it felt like a luxury hotel. All great memories. I was out on Sunday (my first time out in quite a while) and all the deer clubs were filling up, hunters getting ready. I spent the afternoon wandering the woods and remembering some fine trips with Bud.
