Final Evening

Another year is about to pass. My favorite spot at sunset.

How are you not 300lbs! You get more kills than anyone I have met!

Out there chasing critters keeps me thin!

We don't buy beef or pork, only chicken. I keep my freezer full as there are seven people eating out of it. We, my dad and I, will normally kill about eight whitetails. We will keep two and put the rest into the Hunter's For The Hungry program. That goes to our local food bank as hamburger for the 800 families in need. Besides venison, the only other meat based protein these families receive is one chicken every three weeks. Feral hogs are not allowed to be put in the program but it looks like a charity is going to be funding a similar program for them. We eat about five of them a year. All the other eating pigs, piglets and young sows, are taken by friends. The rest are left for the coyotes but I do remove the backstrap and tenderloins from all, even the largest, nastiest boars as it is still tender and tasty as can be.

I expect the medical standards are pretty high for the FAA to keep punching a commercial jet pilots ticket every year.
I can't envisage commercial passenger jet pilot as being a profession where you could let your body "go to seed" and keep your certification to be responsible for the safe delivery to destination of a few dozen passengers.
I presume you gotta keep reasonably fit to keep the paychecks (to buy the guns) coming.

That little doe looks like a real nice eater.
I shoot the odd button buck & doe cause they're the best eating & leave the big old mossy antler bucks running the bush for breeding stock.
If I mount another set of antlers on the hunt cabin the walls will collapse under the combined weight of antlers already hanging there outside and in.

A friend of mine uses antler tines to make some pretty interesting knife handles.

I've handed a lot of log books to and from commercial pilots (when we had real log books) and I never saw a..rotund...pilot. Thin, yes; round, no. If I had to, I'd say more looked like my father-in-law (marathon runner) than anything.
Us mechanics, now there I've seen some big 'uns.
I'd better not talk about Flight Attendants.
EDIT: Wait! I just remembered one at ORD who I used to see. He was good-sized, and that's what made him stand out. Even with all the pilots based there, everybody knew him. He did look rather Ralph Cramden-like with that hat on.

That is a pretty looking site.

Most of us stay in shape, speaking of which my semi annual physical is tomorrow!
