It was always fun to freak out my friends by showing them the wrapped packages marked "dog" in one freezer, and the packages marked "moose" in the other.

Question: in one of the pictures, there are white bags hanging in the background--is that more moose? Yeesh, if it is, I can see how it would take a long time to process. In any case, it looks like a lot of work, and I'm glad that you worked your way through it. <br /><br />Rose in SvRosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05782386414185682598noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1983143568219177072.post-21448657064740928442009-10-07T18:33:56.099-08:002009-10-07T18:33:56.099-08:00Interesting posts.

We'd all get together for a game dinner later in the season. He loved to hunt deer, but is a fussy eater so we never took any of the meat!
