I added Nothing But Norman to this weeks FUF because I wanted to let everyone know I read each and every comment over and over. Thank you all so much for caring and taking the time to share your thoughts with us. It really helped me through that sad moment in time. I know that I am not alone and you all have been through this and other dealings with life and I am so glad I have you all. I think the time is ticking faster and faster for my buddy. Hugs back to all of you!

Life would be WAY too boring without Gambler in it! He was sent to keep you on your toes for sure. :)

Wow. I suggest a video camera so next time you can see it in action!

I wish Norman could of talked because he was locked in the room with him when he got out the second time. He was probably thinking “boy, your gonna get your ass tanned when they get home!”

Sounds like a great week!

Since I’m not a hunter, I have to ask….What do you do with all those birds? Clean them and freeze them? Or do you donate some? I know the deer hunters in my area often donate their deer to homeless soup kitchens……

When we are in Saskatchewan at the farm house we breast the birds out. In order to get them back across the border you need to leave one wing attached for identification purposes, so we only keep the breast. Once home we cut the breast meat off the breast bone and remove the wing. Since it turns out to be a lot of meat like 30+ pounds we take it all in to the local butcher and have it ground up and made into mostly goose hot sticks, breakfast sausage and brats. You don’t even know it is goose since they add pork to it. This is what we live on during the summer when sitting at hunt tests.

More hunting pals photos. They had the best time in Saskatchewan. I asked if I could hunt with Glory one day so I could get some close up photos of her and John said NO!

What are the white things?

JACKIE BOUCHARD says:

I also wondered what those white things are. Hard to tell in the photo.

Those are called rag decoys or silo socks. They are basically white bags that have some paint on them to resemble snow geese. We put out like 1000 of these guys.

    Loved your FUF this week. Lucky you getting a big basket of treats! I have had goose sausage before. It is yummy! So did they check your birds when you crossed back over the border. How long did that take? I don’t remember hubby having to do that.

    Awesome follow-up, thanks for joining the blog hop.

    I’m behind on reading, so this is a great way for me to keep in the loop. I sure hope you are wrong about Norman, I know how much you love him.

    It’s always wonderful to be recognized for our hard work, congratulations to you and your co-worker!

    Wow. You’ve packed a lot of great stuff into this FUF! Thanks for the clarification on the white fake geese. 🙂

    Great FUF post. I had thought those were maybe decoys of some sort. Thanks for ‘splaining!

    I had missed your post about Norman so had to go back and catch up. It’s great news that the cancer is not in his lungs yet. That was what got our Abby in the end. I hope he has a lot more time. I know you are doing your best to not be sad now – it’s hard – but there will be plenty of time to be sad later. Try to enjoy every special moment!
