I love quotes. And the ones having to do with hunting are among my favorites. So on this beautiful day in the Northeast that promises to get more beautiful through tomorrow, I thought I'd simply welcome the weekend with the words of one of the country's most famous women shooters.

"Any woman who does not thoroughly enjoy tramping across the country on a clear, frosty morning with a good gun and a pair of dogs does not know how to enjoy life."

Well said, Ms. Oakley. --K.H.
