We are back in the Great Basin after 4 months on the road, writing, camping, hunting, fishing in Arizona and Mexico. We fell in love with Mexico again. This was my 45th straight year of travels there and one of the finest. I just don't know how and why the Mexicans put up with their northern neighbors. There is no place in the world as wonderful, enchanting and exotic as Mexico. The dove, hunting, quail and a new species Mexican, grouse were fabulous. It exceeds South America in almost every way. The Mexican inshore fishing for snook and pargo and freshwater bass was superb. Nothing exceeds a sunrise and sunset over the Pacific
Doves and Quails were exception this year. Better than our Nevada Chukars although we found three sites where the spring freeze missed them and they were very numerous with many young of the year birds Our double guns performed flawlessly again and our fields dogs, our buddies were at their peak after Canada. The female lab I swear speaks to us and the German Wirehair is all hunter but kind and faithful albeit a little on the diminished side. Kinda like a savant child with math or music
For the next posting we will finish off our camping hunting tales and move down into deep Mexico along the Gulf up to the highlands and travel back up the coast and on to AZ for Spring Training and data crunching. We are trying our new data mining techniques on baseball.
