Not sure how you can sleep Moosie. That would definately be a hunt of a lifetime for me. Hopefully I will do one within the next 10 years.

It goes without saying, but I want lots of pictures. I don't care if you run out of food, but film or disk space shortages are unacceptable.

Have a blast man.
 
Moose man,

you're doomed. until the countdown gets to blast off, you will worthless at work and home.

Good luck if i don't see you in the morning.

I've had a blast following your packing dilemma's. If it helps any, I think your well prepared.

Gotta get real, and keep it basic. You've got...

shelter
food
guns/ammo
tags

...everything else is cake.

In my experience, this is the worst time in doing any hunt. The last few hours worrying about what you may have forgotten. The best part (besides deciding basically where and when to hunt) is when you get on the plane, and realize that it's a done deal, and even if you forgot anything, there's nothing you can do about it.

You've got a sattelite phone, and if you need anything important, you can always call your flight service and get it within a day or two. Yep, it will be expensive, but you CAN get whatever you need.

Besides, getting the State of Alaska firearm entry permit was the hardest thing, right?...

THANx B-dub !! I know I should relax.. BUT I was at the Computer last night thiunking about stuff and Reading posts of everyone leaving on these trips (JB Florida to New Mexico, Tbone for Sheep, Ect..)and it hit me like a ton of brick, I leave in 2 days. I made a few posts and jumped up to go check my list and was Sprinting out when Mr's Moosie was coming in the home office and wondering why I wasn't breathing all that good

Moosie -

Are you getting excited yet? Or are you coming down with the flu?? I'm trying to decide if I should chase bou tomorrow & thrusday or keep my eyes glued to your progress! LOL Not real sure which is more fun!

Ovis -

You have my sympathy for having to go to DMV there in Anchorage. Hope you are lucky with the line.
 
Moosie,

What no permit? Oh, that must have been something I read about Africa.

Moosie, you had beeter get your list out and double check it again to make sure no one took anything out.

You need to relax a little bit. Heck go get yourself a big greasy burger and a shake and you will feel better.

Only a little more time to go and you will be heading out. Good luck to ya.

Just remember, I'm ready. I'm ready! I'm ready! I'm ready!
