Ho the Cookie Bear's hcarth on New Years' Eve. Then many long years of collective expericncc arc put together to in- sure a mienorable hunt the ncxt day. Uncle Duncle Willl re- counit how important it is that ail vehicles in the hunt have proper equipmcent stowed within to -rescue himi in casc hee drives thirough another bridge as lie did deer huniting a few years ago. He will further comment that hielhas double checked ail his gear so hie wil not be inclined to forget any- thing as hias been happening of late. Could 1 help it that hie locked the car keys ii his truîîk this past faîl? After all just because Poo-Kins forgets the canoe paddles whien we go duck hunting and brings along the wrong rod tip when we go Muskic fishing is no reason to believe that anything is rubbing off on hiîn. 'Princess Featherweight' at this time will join in the plans with the statement, that she will not'bring anything of great personal value along. Since the last tirne she did Poo- Kins collapsed on hier portable pottey. Faulty constructioni was the cause of that little mnishap. "lggy', Poo-Kin's other haîf, pipeg up with "Just where will we hiunt?" She always lias hiad visions these past few years that she will have to re-clinb the verticle cliff at Coe Hill. Hardly, David explains to hier that it was very simple if she would have just stepped where lie stepped and held on where hie held on. He's six foot three and she's five foot two. The Cookie Bear has now compiled a menu for the day, but hias included only one pizza, which lggy rerninds hini is not enougli for both of themi. Raîf usually picks this moment to try and put cold water on the Annual Hunt by telling the Cookie Bear that they have to go shopping, work on the deck, or go to his Birthday Party. She hias been this way for awhile now but has gotten worse since she was CLEARINO Oý'UI SALE RIDING IQQT$ *NGLISH & WESTERN APPARIEI TACKS AU 01ON SALE I 0 KOURS * Wed.

ADDR ESS......................................... jPHONE ........ .............................. forced to wear Poo-Kin's extra hunting boots during our last holiday and was mistaken for a moose skinner. It seems that our Cookie Bear brought three pair of boots for hlm- self and none for her. - - With rnost' of the preliminary planning out of the way, the question of when the hunt should begin now cornes up and no matter what time is suggcsted, David responds that it is much too early since after five years of repairs to his alarm dcocks (he uses two), they still don't work. Tinie hias always been a big factor since the opening day of trout fishing a few years ago, when we caught three browns, total' weight, 23 pounds, and invited ail the girls to a fish fry, whien we arrived home at 2 a.m. The fish were delicious, but as usual someone complained that she was too tired to enjoy them. Why don't we get somne more of the sanie size this year, but corne home earlier? Squirming a bit in his seat, Hardly David asks the Cookie Bear to wear a suitable outfit tomorrow so as not to embarass hlm, as he has in the past, by wearing his wet suit and white captain's hat for trout fishing. This naturally brings Uncle Dunkle to, make disparaging, remarks about Poo-Kin's well-used Nwaders. 1 believe that he wiIl purchase a new pair of' waders for Poo this spring as he can no longer tolerate the screamns of anguish that issue forth_ as yet another leak is discovered.0 Yes, this is how the Annual New Years' Day Rabbit Hunt goes. Some day we may even get the dogs out hunt- ing, but 1 don't really know when. Every year there is always more successes and defeats to re-digest, and every year the tragedies seem of less importance and the comical incidents seem more hilarious. 1 hope your New Years'Day Rabbit Hunts are as succeýssful as ours always have been.
