Blind Contour Friday 13
For "Blind Contour Friday 13", my new Browning hat (it reads "Pheasants Forever") and camo gloves. Trying to simulate neon orange is tricky.
A litte background here: most don't believe I hunt when I tell them. I consider myself a well-rounded woman (very feminine) but with an independent and adventurous streak. I wear high heels by day but once home I wear jeans and tanks. I was raised in a family that hunted, fished and camped. Mostly hunting in my family was a man thing (I never got to go along) but helped clean my share of fish and game. When I married K, he taught me to hunt and I really enjoy just being out in nature with him.
Pheasant season opens tomorrow and husband K and I are taking off before the sun comes up. We're both really looking forward to being outdoors, enjoying the fresh air and the beautiful countryside. It's so great to get out of the city, away from the hustle and bustle and just get back to nature. That's the best part of the hunt for both of us, but we always eat whatever we get and don't hunt just for sport.
I'll be taking my paper and pencil, along with a camera for when we break so stay tuned, you just never know what might turn up on my blog! For more blind contours, visit InkFinger.

Very nice Maggie - you have done a great job. I am also a woman who enjoys hunting and nature and appreciate your comments.
Great job. You made it look like fun too.
I also like your drawing in public sketch. Starbucks?
Where does one go to hunt pheasants?
very nice hat! And brown and orange are great colors to match. i would consider wearing one, even if i didn't have to go hunting :-)
Violetsmycolor: We hunt in Wildlife refuge areas. We got 3 today!
I opted for the orange hat as I am so short and the weeds are often over my head. Another hunter may think I am a bird if I were to wear a camo or printed hat.
I love target shooting and have sold my handgun since I had my kids. Your hat brings back great memories of hosting a Mo Dept of Natural Resources Hunter Safety Training session years ago at my car shop. Great BC!
