I suspect that Jim is still on the road visiting friends/family, etc. I'm sure he'll post his video up on Youtube and we'll all get to see it soon.
I can't wait either. That is just way too cool....

Got back late last night, 2 days of driving! In addition to the Hog hunt I stopped off along the Pedernales and got permission from a rancher to collect rock
on his property, first one to collect there so got some awesome rock. I have a lot of points to make for all these friendly Texans who extended their
hospitality to me. I took a lot of video of the rock collecting also, incredible place, so will probably download that to Youtube also. The Hog hunt video is
15 minutes long, just lots of footage of me standing there holding the dart and atlatl in the ready waiting for the hogs to emerge behind the brush, not too
exciting till you see them and hear them getting closer and then the action begins, so I will edit that long wait out. Will try to get it up on Youtube today,
or tommorrow at the latest, it is pretty cool........jim
