GETTING OLD!

Happy Birthday

WESLEY ROSS MADSEN

11 YRS OLD

For school in science class Wesley had to make a volcano replica.
He has been fascinated ever since.


Wesley is Mr. Adventure. He really reminds me of Huckleberry Finn.
He is always out in the back yard by the slough? That is the nieghbors terms for stream. You can find him there fishing, treasure hunting, or raft making.


This year Wesley went on his very first hunt with Brian. He couldn't wait for the day to come. Brian and Wesley went to AZ for a Javelina hunt. Wesley shot this one from 160 yards. It took only one shot. Brian said that Wesley was jumping up and down, hands in the air and cheering with excitement.

I think it is a big Rodent, but Brian swears it is a kind of pig? It reminds me of those over sized rodents off of The Princess Bride. You know the ones the people were attacked by in the Fire Swamp. (R.O.U.S. rodent of unusually size) Anyway they stink and look ugly. The locals love to have their meat and make sausage and other things out of it. I had no objections.
