Okay.
You know, when I go upstairs, I got to have a railing, use a cane sometimes.
Okay.
But,
but I have a foot issue and knee issue and the heart, the heart seems to be okay.
You know, my back, I've got back, serious back issues, but, uh, and I haven't taken care of myself.
You know, I, most of my hunts were remote wilderness hunts on horseback and a lot of hiking in tough country.
Early on, I was a forester.
I did a lot of wildfire suppression and which is, I think the toughest job you can have because you, you're going, you're, there's no timetable, you know, you got those, but,
So I was, I was always in pretty doggone good shape, but then I realized, well, like right now, somebody wants me to do something this fall and it's like, well, maybe I'll be able to, maybe it won't be here.
I mean, you can't sit around and cry about it.
A lot of people say you're so damn lucky, you know, that you can still do stuff.
Cause a lot of guys, 20 years younger than I have given up hunting cause they just can't, you know, they can't get around.
So.
it's, it's a sobering thing.
One day I drove up the South Fork near Cody, which takes you up to the famous thoroughfare where Jack O'Connor has hunted a lot and I've hunted a lot.
And I was sitting on the, on the dirt road where the trailhead is.
And I saw these guys come down and they had, they were on horseback and they each led two horses.
Nice set of elk antlers, six point bull and all the meat, two bulls.
And I thought, I'll never go up that trail again.
