lot of the big hunt

Well now it that time of year when the deer hunt is on and well Mouse and I have our duty to perform. So we headed up there in the high country and did some hunting. We had been up there for a three days and I had not seen a thing.

Hey Mouse? I don’t like the looks of the weather we are going to get snow in if we stay up here any longer. I am going to head back to the barn, you can stay if you want, and I will come up and get your frozen carcass next spring. Yaw, I know you said you saw a big buck up here, I am cold and this snow is getting deeper. There are some hot biscuits and coffee down there in the bunk house.

Just then Mouse fired of a shot. You missed I bet you didn’t even get close. Yep that was a big one, a big miss.  Yaw I believe you, you wing him but I am going back where it’s warm.  If you find him come a get me I will help you bring it down, but I am going home.

Roy! Hey Roy! What? Get the truck! What for? You got what? I'm hurrying just let me get my boots on! Where are we going what's the hurry? Yaw! I know you said you winged him. Ok! This snow is getting deep! Yaw! I see that red spot! Ok! Let's put in the truck! We'll take a look at it when we get back to the bunkhouse! Sure looks like we're in for it. Oh! Pipe down! No I won't get stuck, if we do, it will be your fault. I can't see a thing through all this snow. Well there's the gate! No!!! You get the gate you got us into this mess! Hold the door open. This thing is heavy! Put a log on the fire and turn up the light.

Say! You did hit something! You hit the buckle that why it came off.  Do you know what this is? This must belong to that faller up north. Yap! That one, with the big belly and wears a red suit. What do you mean what is it? Can't you see? It a mail bag! I guess I should give him a call and let him know we found it. No! I won't tell him you shot it! I'll let you tell him!! Well I guess he's busy I got a busy signal. Hey! Mouse! Get out of that bag it doesn't belong to us. What do you mean it was open? Give me that! Read it!!? When are you going to learn to read? You're not supposed to read other people's mail!!! Ok! Ok! I'll read this one. But put that gun up! 

Dear; Santa! I told you this belongs to nick! Darn it mouse you're going to get us in to big trouble. Who wrote it? I don't know. All right, already. It says it is from Josephine. She said that she had been good. And she would like some paints. You found another one?? Ok I'll read it. It is from Keith. He wants a saint's foot ball. Keith who? I don't know! I guess it the one that married Keith's sister. Mouse quit that you're not pouring coffee you're steaming them open. Who it from? Martin! He wants more fibber and paints. This one is from Connie she want a puzzle. Look at what you have done! You have got me opening them! Jan writes she wants a nurse kit. Kevin Sr wants a Boy Scout knife. Little Kevin wants an army man. Dustin wants a Rolly Polly. Julie wants to make cookies. Kaylee and Mariah want a basketball. Andrew wants a snowboard. Shania wants a puppy. Bayle wants a doll. Brooke wants a shopping cart. Harold wants more sleep. Matt wants a video game. Amber wants a new sweat shirt.

That's enough! We're not going to open any more. You go out the barn and get some tape or glue and seal them back up. I'm going to try to get a hold of nick. What that? It looks important. It a list and your name is right at the top. And it says you have been naughty with a great big red X next to your name.

Mouse I got a hold of nick and he is not happy he said he would be here right away. You had better put this back the way you found it. Here he comes it looks like he's got the marshal and that sheriff Garfield with him.

Howdy marshal! Come on in. nick tell me that mouse there has been shooting at his deer. You know messing with the Christmas mail is a hanging offence. Give the mail bag to nick. 

You know that Garfield has a wanted poster he think you match the description Mouse.

 Nick says that if you round up his deer and get them back to the North Pole he will drop the whole thing. You had better get tracking! You got six weeks! >>>> >>>> >>>>  deer tracks >>>> >>>> >>>>

Thank you for coming by and god bless  You got six weeks.
