A Few Of My FAVORITE THINGS…
Thursday, November 27th, 2008
(TO THE TUNE FROM ‘The Sound Of Music‘)
Coffee in tin cups, banked fires a glowin’…
Pre-dawn in Tejas on trails I’m a’knowin’.
True-sent old C L O S E D signs that slip from the string…
These are a few of my favorite things.
“Kee Putts” and scratchin’, just over the next hill…
3 big ol’ gobblers, now there is a REAL thrill!
Snuffers that zip through the base of the wing…
These are a few of my favorite things.

When the boss gripes…
When the bill stings…
When I’m going mad,
I simply remember my favorite things…
And then I don’t feel so bad.

Snow in the Bridgers, big Muleys up high…
Evenin’s among ‘em, with flame in the sky…
Taking a blue grouse while she’s on the wing,
These are a few of my favorite things.
The Ozarks in Springtime, Wisconsin in Autumn…
Turkeys and deer and bear, yeah, they got ‘em.
Watchin’ the stars as the night critters sing…
These are a few of my favorite things.

Callin’ a big bull, and he comes my way…
Packin’ him out for most of the day…
Sharing with good friends the Joy that it brings,
These are a few of my favorite things.
Helpin’ a young’n to work out the trails…
Watchin’ with pride as his first arrow sails…
Spreadin’ his story till he feels like a king,
These are a few of my favorite things.

Yeah, when the boss bites…
When the bill stings…
When I’m goin’ mad,
I simply remember my favorite things…
And then I don’t feel so bad.
