    I think my curse was a blessing this morning. Bad thing is I think I might be catching a cold, doesn't seem ro be improving. Going to try some Ziacam, usually at first sign I can get it fought off with Nyquill.

    Looking outside, seeing a wind driven rain. Tomorrow needs to be the day, hard to believe I may be busting out the thermacell in a couple days. Then again, it has always been warm when I have shot my bucks.....

    In the stand and ready on the east coast of canada. Perfect wind and 6 degrees.....well that would be 40 or so to most of you. Hunting over a scrape lets hope they read the script today

    In the stand, decent weather not too warm getting to 60s before sundown, just heard something that sounded like a deer running behind me, could have been a big branch falling though

    Back in the stand, saw about 4,321 does and fawns on my way down the hill to the creek. They are still close by somewhere. Hunting land that hasn't been hunted in 30 years is GREAT!
