[QUOTE="gonefshn, post: 97172, member: 380"] I have to blame my mom for my spending of all my money hunting and fishing. She was an elementary school teacher who loved science and the outdoors. In the spring every nice day after school my friends and I would pile into her Chevy Kingswood station wagon at St. Joseph's school and head to Ziebach's pass on Devils Lake for some pike and walleye fishing. In the fall, on weekends we'd load up the Kingswood with decoys, drive it across the fields to our spot, and while we hunted she'd be sitting in the Kingswood correcting school papers. One of a kind mom! I'm now looking forward to the day I can retire and fish and hunt all the time. Funny thing is all the people who are now retired constantly tell me that you think you'll do that but once you retire and can it's not that big of a deal so you'll get bored with it. I always laugh and tell them I got my first paper route in 4th grade so I could buy a fancy fishing rod my parents couldn't afford, I often came in late for school because of hunting or fishing and every day off was out doing that, I now use almost every day of my vacation time for fishing tourneys, and go out every single chance I get with most years going fishing and/or hunting over 100 days a year. And you're trying to tell me when I get the chance to go every day I'm not hardly going to go? I don't think so!!! [/QUOTE]
