he of course asked if we were also going to follow him to his house and unload the groceries, but we gracefully declined the offer

and it didn't end there , when we got our lunch from the deli inside and hit the check out line , the mom and daughter in front of us were having trouble checking out because the food stamp card wouldnt cover all the groceries ....
after watching them struggle a minute or so ,trying to figure out how to pay for the last half of the food items that appeared to be for children, I simply told the cashier I got it, just add it to my bill ....

life seems to give you back what you put into it , what goes around comes around and YOU DO REAP WHAT YOU SOW!

yes that's how u do it Outlaw and teaching good life lessons to your daughter as well. I give away most of my ketch to folks I know could use some variety in their diet and just the enjoyment in their faces when you do is reward enough.

those words could be used in a song. Wait, they have been. Nice reference.

I’ve known you were a good man for a while now. Karma is always worth the investment and time spent. Glad you have a place to enjoy when time allows. Little will remember these things for a very long time. God Bless Brother.

Had a buddy that had a place right outside of Groesbeck TX. He raised cattle but the hogs gave in fits. Said I could hunt the place whenever I wanted but I was only allowed to use a rimfire rifle due to him having cattle on the property. I became a sniper with a 17 WSM in my hand. I had to pass up alot of shots because those critters don't like to stay still much. I learned that putting that tiny bullet in their ear hole meant DRT. He sold the place 7 years ago and I have not shot a hog since. It sure was fun while it lasted.

new owner is still probably having same issues with those hogs. have you approached them about continuing your hog removal work?

For the most part Texas landowners are real sticklers when allowing strangers to hunt their land. In most cases it either no or they will do it for a fee.
