A few more pics from my once-in-a-lifetime Minnesota Elk Hunt near Lancaster this week. We have not scored it yet, so stay tuned. Thanks again for all the support and congratulations. I still can’t believe I was drawn for this hunt! The best part was having my son, Kyle, along. We will never forget the moment that big bull walked out. 🙏 So grateful!

Thank you everyone for all the well wishes and support!
It was an absolute blessing to be able to do this hunt and to have our son by my side made it that much better 🙏

Oh what a night! Big bull down!! Rick was drawn for the once-in-a-lifetime elk hunt near Lancaster, MN. Last night, with our son Kyle by his side, this big boy walked out. An incredible experience and an impressive animal. Wow! Huge thank you to the landowners and outdoor enthusiasts in the area who supported this hunt. Walking away with an unforgettable father/son experience and so many new friends! The big bull is a bonus. Feeling grateful! 🙏 I hear the turnaround for mounting this thing is a year and a half. 😉

Took a break from painting fish the other day and tried catching them, guess I should have kept on painting 🤬

Looking for a great place for your whole gang to stay on Lake of the Woods? Our VRBO just opened up some dates in June. Cozy enough for two, big enough for 12! Check it out, we’d love to host you! PM me if you have any questions 🙂. And share with anyone you think might want some time ‘up north!’

Situated on a lake, this vacation home is 0.1 mi (0.1 km) from Lake of the Woods and 2.6 mi (4.2 km) from Warroad Estates Golf Course. William S Marvin Training and Visitor Center and The Shed are also within 6 mi (10 km).
