I don't know if you knew this, but every year on May 1st Matt makes his pilgrimage to Jackson Hole. May 1st is when the elk refuge is opened to the public. Grown men come from all over and plot and plan on how to jockey for the best position to be the first on the refuge. They then scramble to the hills to try and find as many antlers as they can. Matt has been doing this since the first year we were married. That year he and his brother, Tyler, each got about 10 antlers. The next year they did about the same. Every year after it has gone down hill. There have been years they have come home empty handed or with one white antler. But they have not given up hope. This year Matt was rewarded for his perseverance and brought home 3 brown antlers!
He has already began plotting for next year.
