    Once again I underestimated the wind factor. COLD.

    Also, the parade of tree rats has begun. Loud little sobs.

    Looks like the rain has ended for the morning, hopefully.

    Thick clouds and the rain enabled me a silent and bumpless entry, hopefully the T'storms has them hunkered down until sunrise

    Switched out my bow holder, should have done it long ago.

    Good luck everyone! 31 minutes to go

    No deer yet. Saw a eagle fly over though that was cool.
