Gustav Get - Away



Don't know what you guys have been up to, but we have had a Hurricane Party! Pushmataha has been the host to 50+ people and animals (customers and family and friends of our customers) since Saturday when Louisiana began evacuations for Hurricane Gustav. Some of these people had never met before, but were brought together under the common cause of escaping Gustav.

I will say that these people are some of the finest that we have ever met and they have a great spirit. Since the lodge is not normally open this time of year, they have pitched in to make beds, wash linens, and when we left after lunch someone was planning on cutting the grass. They have enjoyed meals together - barbecue, shrimp boil, spaghetti, etc. Someone is always in the kitchen cooking.

While we have enjoyed having them visit us, I know that they are anxious to head home and survey the damages. Wishing you guys safe travels and hope that you will come back and visit us again - maybe to hunt instead of hurricane escaping.
