And on that farm she had a son ....



Meet Pete -- that's what his buds call him -- that's really not his name, but everyone but his Mom calls him "Petey", so for now, for here, so shall I.




He loves to hunt.... and fish .....


...but mostly hunt .... turkeys, deer, squirrels, coons, opossums, and all other manner of critters that happen across his path. Give him a one-room cabin in the woods with his lap-top, cell phone, camera, TV, a cast iron skillet, his huntin' and fishin' gear, a blanket, pillow, and picture of his Mom to tack on the wall, and he'd be perfectly content, livin' off the land.

Of course he loves, sports, too -- hockey, football, and most of all baseball ! He's been a BIG St. Louis Cardinals fan since he was knee-high to a grasshopper.

And he has a creative side to him .... take his food art, for example .....

... and photography -- now THAT is his passion!





He never travels anywhere without his camera. It goes huntin' and fishin' with him, to college with him, to church with him, everywhere, and I do mean EVERYWHERE he goes, even to walk the dog. And he will go to any extreme to get the shots he wants... see what I mean?

Here are some of my favorites ....

Yep, that's my outdoorsman, farmhand, and shutterbug, Petey ....

He's one heck of a guy ... think I'll keep him around for awhile.
