He gave the wife a tag and the OK to take the deer. Our friend loaded it into his pick-up and delivered it to our house. In the mean time I'd called the father-in-law who loaded up his little Lada and drove over. We were ready with spot lights, rope, buckets and all the tools needed. We hoisted that thing up in the tree in front of the house and he bleed, skinned, butchered and back it all up before midnight. We got some steaks and a roast out of the deal. He and the mother-in-law ate everything else over the winter. Our new neighbours, (we'd only been in the house a few months) must have wondered about us. Things went down hill from there.

In Idaho it is legal to take road kill.

Here in Ontario, small varmints yes! But birds and animals that require a license which are taken out of season will necessitate a review and permit to keep them. Protected species are even worse. I have a friend who is a birder/photographer and he found a dead Saw-whet owl. He had to jump through a number of hoops to get to keep and have it stuffed.

One time in Nor Cal in the hills, I came around a corner and a flock of turkeys was crossing. I hit a hen, and before I could stop and go back to get it,someone going the other way stopped and grabbed it.

Love those old family recipes.

Wonder if I could kick it up a notch with Velveeta and shells. And I'm not sure if these Dollar Tree hotdogs are pure beef.
