A Year In The Life - Day 366, May 21, 2015

With one more half-day of school to go, the trapping class took our last walk of the year.  The last walk ever, I guess you could say.  Not likely that class is going to be taught next year.  We sure have learned a lot.  They caught everything they set out to learn to catch. Trapping is a good teacher on so may levels.  Patience, persistence, hard work - nothing's easy.... the list goes on.  Everytime you leave the house to go trapping you will learn something.   Maybe about yourself.  Maybe about the animals.  Maybe about nature.  Maybe about life.  Maybe about the skeptics and the haters.  Catching fur and receiving a check is the least of the benefits, though worth every minute - even during the lean times when you aren't making much money.  I'm going to miss you guys!!
