The Deer Show Comes to Town -- Day One

Stump Shiner met his brother Hoot at the front door and did not seem surprised that they were wearing identical outfits: Realtree camo pants and hunter green polo shirts. The wallets in their hip pockets were plump with cash.

“I hope y’all know you look like Tweedledum and Tweedledee,” Charlene called to them as they climbed into Stump’s Ford F-150.

“Ready, bro?” Stump asked.

“Ready as Freddy,” Hoot grinned.

They sat in a pleasurable silence all the way to downtown Montgomery where the giant three-day Buckmasters Whitetail Deer expo was about to begin, each of them imagining the miles of aisles of gadgets they would poke through, a Willie Wonka’s chocolate factory for the over-40 set.

 

** Yours truly will be in a booth at this show for the next three days. Further reports pending!

I love subculture.  The way they dress in order to identify themselves to one another is very interesting.  Will be watching for more posts.

I want to go to there.

Or have a writer friend to go for me and tell.

Hoot and Stump and bro-tastic exchanges, awesome. Sometimes we men sound so....ummm....what's the word?.....

I noticed the "aisles of miles" too.  And I remember when Stump got that F-150!  Am I a real fan or what!!  Did Hoot buy that for him?  Am I remembering right?

 

Okay, you sell-sell-sell your wares and report back to us!!  And have fun!

Sorry, gang, Joni Mitchell gets credit for miles of aisles.

As to wine and cheese, I wish.

I have to be present at the Deer Expo all weekend where they serve  diet coke and venison jerky.
