Well, that just put it where it was unpumpable.
There's no water.
I mean, a little bit, what little we did pump, we dried the creek up.
And so I thought every day, I mean, he would have never, he would have been so frustrated
That it just won't rain and we can't get any water because my dad, he pretty well hunted every day of duck season every year for how many years?
The couple times, just think about it, duck season is 60 days.
Now, there was a period it was 30 days.
a season, but he pretty well hunted every day.
And so there was only a couple of times I remember where he got so sick that he could not put one foot in front of the other.
But even then he shuffled out there where he could hear whether we were shooting or not from his porch.
And one of those days was famous because we hammered him.
And he said, it's the first time in my life that I almost cried.

You know, it was just hard for him.
But I will say this year has also, you know, Willie from our first hunt this year, it kind of ignited a resurgence in his duck hunting practices.
He's gone more this year than he has in the last year.
30 combined.
So I thought that was interesting.
And maybe it is just that kind of nostalgic passing down the legacy.
But yeah, I quote him often because I miss him.
