     It's 6:30 in the morning and I receive a phone call from my dad.  I had had plans to go to Lansing that morning but the snow storm had changed my plans. I was sleeping in bed when he called me to see if I wanted to go rabbit hunting with him. It was the first time he had asked me to go and I was excited. I got ready and found my camo and rushed out the door on my way over to his house. The roads were drifted over and the snow looked like that from a snow globe. Once I got there we took the quad and went back the trail to look for rabbits. It didn't take long before I took my first shot. I was so excited when I saw I had gotten my first rabbit. 
     As the day continued we went all around the 40 acres behind my parents. I had once incident where my hair got stuck in a tree and I couldn't move. My dad just laughed and left me there.
We got a total of nine rabbits and I was able to out shoot my dad. I'm not sure if he let me or if he was just shooting that bad that day. I will never forget walking the trails and hunting with my dad and the rabbit stew that came with it.
