Over the past few days I’ve been watching the weather. I must say that I have been less than enthusiastic about heading out in the rain Saturday morning. And I guess I am just wore out from such a crazy work schedule and so many weekends that I’ve really found it hard to get in the groove! But my grandson is all jacked up. He’s excited about the chance to sit in the tree stand in the rain! He said he doesn’t even care if we see anything as long as we can be out there, rain or shine! I love his enthusiasm! So ready will be! And the more we gather our gear and get the buggy ready for tomorrow the more I’m getting my head into this game! He's got what we HAD! Desire! Lol. We are gonna sleep in and take the easy road in the afternoon. Guarantee it will be dry and calm then. HA

First youth opener in a good while I won’t be out in the woods. We just got home from the high school football game and son said he doesn’t want to get up in the morning. I make him have a decision before we go to bed and that’s the decision we go by. He has homecoming dance tomorrow night, so it’ll be another late night so doubtful for Sunday morning as well. Oh well, he has all season I suppose.
Good luck to all going out this weekend.

And like you said, he has all season to deer hunt.

Sticker bushes push a kid away from hunting quicker than any pretty girl ever will.

I havent heard a single shot this morning around us (window open). Weather is great out now. But I didnt get to sleep till after 3:30am, so waiting for the afternoon hunt was necessary for us. I will still be snoozing in the blind I bet. Lol

Had a guy at work here took his son out this morning, got a shot off but said he was shaking so bad he doubts it was a good hit. Couldn't find it and to boot I guess all the excitement wore his boy out so when they got back up in the stand he fell asleep.

Sitting at the end of a food plot that didnt take off too good. It has been reseeded now, just need rain to make it happen. At least it's an opening in the woods to see thru. We got the wind in our face and unfortunately an ATV running back and forth on the next property over. If nothing tonight, we will be back in the morning.

The atv travel brought a chainsaw and some work. Already done and gone. Normal everyday stuff around here, no harm no foul. Shadows are getting longer and cooling down. It's really nice being back in the woods, in a chair, relaxing! Insert a deer and the post card will be finished!
