I'm itching to get back out. I've been out twice. Only 1 on opening day... 2nd day was a fail on my part. Started off with a missed shot at about 15 yds. Squirrels comes crawling down a tree. Stops and stretches his head out. Locked in my crosshairs. I aimed a inch above his head. Missed... I missed my second day too, but I wasn't going to tell anyone ...I was using a shotgun. LOL Man, they can get lost in a hurry in all the leaves. I gotta get my eyes checked before deer season. I don't lose sleep over missing a squirrel, but... I should have just powered from 5 to 3 and took the shot. Over thought it

There's no thinking for me; I just point and slam the trigger. I need that robin fella's ex-wife to go with me.

I have to wait until Sunday afternoon. My father-in-law turns 80 tomorrow and a wedding Saturday starting at noon and ending sometime in the evening. I thought those Catholic weddings lasted 3 days; at least the last one I went to seemed like it. I married a couple last month in 15 minutes.

I thought those Catholic weddings lasted 3 days; at least the last one I went to seemed like it. I married a couple last month in 15 minutes. It is a traditional German Catholic wedding. We go over to her house at noon for food and drinks. The tradition is every time you enter a room you have a drink. The wedding at 5:30 pm and then reception after that. I'm finding a chair and sitting all day. No room changing for me. I have to wait until Sunday afternoon. My father-in-law turns 80 tomorrow and a wedding Saturday starting at noon and ending sometime in the evening.

I finally made it out this morning for the first time this season. Didn't hear or see a single squirrel! Just 2 jakes, a box turtle and a ton of crows and other songbirds.

2 for the morning, not too bad. Just need some more practice skinning them I didn't fair as well as the guy in the video, but got the job done. Guess I have to kill a bunch more so I can practice.
