    Halloween for me. Changing of the seasons. Cooler temps. I dig Halloween. Most importantly game on for rut activity. 2 weeks of the best hunting to come.

    Tie between two of the most humbling days for me:

    -Good Friday, it is the church service which humbles me the most and I love and hate at the same time the most. The pure definition of sacrifice laid out.

    -February 23, this is the day my brother whom only lived 6 hours was born and died. He would have been just shy of a year older than me and his death is the only reason I'm here (pops was set for the surgery till his death). Not a day goes by I don't think of him despite never meeting him.

    National Unicorn day. I like unicorns.

    Not quite as deep and emotional as Tynimiller's post, but somebody had to follow that.

    It's kind of a secret society thing. If I told you, I would have to kill you. And I like you,........so, you just celebrate it whenever the mood strikes and maybe some day you will be contacted by a member with more information.
