Christmas With Family

Bob with son, Greg, on Christmas Day.


A family portrait ~ Greg, Laura and John Gregory and Eleanor in background.

The family cat, Blackie, posing for a picture!


Another nice deer - Greg is an avid deer hunter and harvested this big 8-point buck (see picture) taken south of town in December 2000. He was the guest of a hunting buddy/friend and used his in line muzzle loader. The deer weighed 255 lbs. and the antlers had an inside spread of 25 inches. His buck scored 131 on the Boone and Crockett.

A front view.

My step-son, Greg, made this "table" mount for his deer out of peke cypress. This is a side view and a very different and unusual way in presenting a deer.

  1. Looks like a lovely holiday celebration.

    That display for the deer skeleton and antlers is interesting. ;)

  2. They call that a European mount showing only the skull bones and horns. Usually it's on a wood mount on the wall but I have never seen a table one that Greg had made. It's different...thanks for coming by cdegardens. :)
