Saturday is fast approaching and I leave this desert oasis for the land of moose.

I'll depart this paradise and switch planes in Denver and switch again in Toronto. Finally I'll land in Gander. After a four hour nap in the hotel I'll be met by the outfitter, or his representative, and depart for the moose bogs.

Been getting ready but still have a lot to do. Going to finish loading ammo tonight and do a preliminary packing. Tomorrow I finish doing my laundry for the trip and pack for real.

I went to the range to confirm my zero this morning. I'm starting to get excited but trying to contain it. Can't find my waterproof gloves so I may need to make a run to the local hunting supply store since it's too late to run to Cabela's.

Got my passport last week. I like the process I used as I went to the Western Regional Processing Center and it was ready for pick up the next day. The U.S. Customs form is filled out and in my possession. I just have to remember to bring it and not misplace it.

OK, I'm off to do chores related to getting ready. Have a good time while I'm gone ladies and gentlemen.

Ah, yes, that tension just before heading out that won't allow us to sleep even when we know we should. There'll be time and to spare after the moose is down. Wishing you every success, Vince.

Saw four bulls but no shot opportunity. Also saw a good woodland caribou bull. Wish I had a caribou tag.
