Who is this person?

The Deerslayer seems to be moving toward adulthood at lightening speed. I rarely capture a picture of this kid. If I catch him still, then he refuses to have his picture taken. So, today when he invited me out to his new, "structure", and told me to bring my camera, I could not refuse.


He decided to replicate a survival structure that he had seen on, The Discovery Channel. He was doing a great job, until our Jack Russell Terrier crashed through the roof. But, he took it all in stride.

When I came back in the house and looked at this picture.....well, it just seemed like a whole new person looking at me.
