"See Ya Tomorrow"

“Hey.”

“Hey.”

“You’re back early.”

“So are you. Hear anything?”

“Nothin’. You?”

“Not a peep.”

“Weird, huh? They were gobblin’ their heads off two days ago. That was a great hunt. For a while there it looked like we were gonna get a double.”

“Til those hens cut us off.”

“Now nothin’. These turkeys are driving me crazy.”

“Me, too.”

“How many days does this make?”

“Nine.”

“In a row?”

“Naw, we took off Sund’y.”

“That’s right. I’m gonna get fired.”

“I’m ‘a get divorced.”

“Which is worse?”

“Mmm, they’re both bad.”

“Remind me again why we do this.”

“Can’t explain it. Just got to, that’s all.”

“Well, not me. Not anymore. I can’t take this punishment. All I’ve got to show for this season is bags under my eyes and fuel bills. It ain’t worth it.”

“So yer quittin’, huh? Lettin’ ‘em win?”

“That’s right. They’re just birds. Shouldn’t be this hard. I’ve had it.”

“Alright.”

“When’re you comin’ back up?”

“Tomorrow, I reckon.”






“I’ll meet ya at the gate a little after five.”

“See ya tomorrow.”
