Anyway, last 4 days been up and down, have a good day then bad day , rinse repeat. Today been great, but the deer stands been winning, well I shouldn't say that. right now we're even 2 to 2. Made it through two nights without having to get out and relax on the ground for a bit, other two nights I was up and down several times, those nights of course would explain lack of seeing anything at all, not tonight, was real good. This morning same. But first night back I was a mess, I was up and down 5 times and never did settle down. Oh well, I'll keep fighting.
Stayed in the camper last 3 nights, however, tonight and at least tomorrow I'm going to chicken out, down to zero windchill and windy, the furnace works good, but propane isn't that cheap after awhile, so I'll just have to go inside for a couple nights then back out. Just love it in that little camper. Quiet, peace of mind, no phones ringing. Peaceful. Except the 20 mph winds shaking the thing all over.
OK, so roads were looking a little slick today, talked Jeanne into staying until tomorrow, she'll make the trek back to Burlington for a while, I'll stay here and keep trying to find my "good" buck. Yeah I shot two little ones, but hey, I haven't shot a deer in 15 years, I'm entitled I think to thinning the herd a bit right?
I'm good on meat now, two deer will get me through winter and then some, so I don't really need another one, BUT I really want to shoot a good buck, been too long.
Been and interesting year, lots of ups and downs and breakthroughs. No set backs worth even mentioning. Can't wait for the next year to see what challenges I can tackle.
Anyway, mostly just been hunting and pushing myself more than I should probably, but nothing ventured nothing gained.
See you tomorrow.
