I think that when Mike goes on a hunting trip & is traversing unknown territory, his brain is working at capacity to protect him. That's why he can always find his way home & remembers, in detail, each step of his journey. Everyone's brain works that way. When he's home, his brain knows it can run on Leahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07376635647754241996noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7263840964304974785.post-341648157045835162011-10-31T19:33:39.600-07:002011-10-31T19:33:39.600-07:00Mike has his skills, and remembering the hunt in d...Mike has his skills, and remembering the hunt in detail is one of them. Unfortunately, this memory does not translate to household issues.<br /><br />I've had trials with the elevation in Colorado, too.

Great job! Sometimes the vivid recollection is as good (or better) than the live event. Regardless, I look forward to the next installment.Richard V.

Never underestimate what a change in elevation does to your body. I've been to Colorado often enough to have 1st hand experience. <br /><br />Your memory of each bird & each hike up and down a hill is superb. Maybe your secret is that you take notes as you go along! <br /><br />The trophies in Bob's house remind me of a scene inLeahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07376635647754241996noreply@blogger.com
