My husband and son learned to hunt and the first time I saw a deer hanging from our tree in the front yard to drain with everyone driving by was gross. I called my friend back home and told her how disgusting it was. I never cleaned it , my older son and I proclaimed we were the consumers only. My grandmothers stories sound like this though, wow, I would have been rebelious too. I did complain when we would have family gatherings here where us women would prepare the dinner and clean up too and even on Mother's Day. Then after years of complaining we finally said they had to help clean up and that was that. Begrudgingly they did, geeeez they had it good for so many years. Love your stories and now I can finally post, figured it out, simple as making sure I uncheck the "keep me signed in box" on the google sign in, geeeez so simple. oh what happened to your pics?Cheryl Welchhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12349932420632104347noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8291605468198367971.post-5353715118255587962011-05-23T22:32:50.057-07:002011-05-23T22:32:50.057-07:00Very interesting reading.

Only it was different in that here, hunting or 'shikaar' was a sport for royalty and well off citizens. And same with angling. My father's family lived in the country and so I experienced the cows and buffaloes and many things peculiar to an Indian country life. But once again I was a part of it as an observer.<br />But I enjoyed all of it. It was fun for me as a city bred girl. I even became a bit of a shikaari (hunter) myself. However rabbits was something I couldn't eat because I had some as pets.<br /><br />Looking forward to some more...:)Joyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09341706502020011897noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8291605468198367971.post-81481981231575737702011-05-23T11:56:29.612-07:002011-05-23T11:56:29.612-07:00Not sure how you managed it.
