Rick's Hit the Lottery!

Rick has never been more excited! A little background info for all non-hunters:
  • Every year you have to put into a statewide drawing for the hunting tags you wish to "draw for."
  • Each year your name is not drawn, you earn a bonus point
  • Some hunts are more rare, and require more bonus points. Meaning you would put in for 15 + years before they would ever draw your name
Rick went out on a limb, entered for a very rare, coveted tag for the Beaver Area Mountain Goat. Most people draw this "once in a lifetime" tag with 15+ points. Rick had 4 points and drew the tag. He is so excited for his upcoming hunt. All I hear these days is "It's a once-in-a-lifetime tag!" He cannot ever draw this again. The boys are already plotting. It's all they talk about. I think this equates to a once-in-a-lifetime vacation for me? Anyone agree?! He gets to play for two whole weeks, so do I right :) Hawaii, Cruise, I'm not sure yet! Ha ha
