Postcard of the Day -- hunters @ church

[fflo]

CATHOLIC CHURCH HUNTER'S [sic] MASS.Houghton Lake, Michigan

The postcard was sent to the Bowmans of St. Clair, Mich. in Sept. of 1955 (or maybe '56) with this message: "Hello Chas & Nellie: Well we left home Wed. morning. Was going to Hubbard Lake but didn't like it there. So went to Mackinaw and back to Houghton lake. We have a cottage here. The wind as been blowing hard but it is nice now. As ever, Wess & Lou."

I don't know whether that's really funny or really terrifying...

Yeah, me neither. I try to lean toward the former by not thinking about it too much. Surely they're praying to be more successful killers, though. Or that they'll get extra bacon after mass at the hunters' breakfast down at Restaurant, in the Best Western.

Hmm, hunting. Mixed feelings. Hunting for food--fine. Cuz, you know, if you're eating meat, something's dying regardless if you buy in the store or hunt it in the woods. Hunting for trophies--just plain damned evil.
