    I’m out with the rifle as well. Dusting of snow on the ground temps mid 20s. Fisher came through so far. Good luck out there.

    Did not go out, nasty out there right now, snow is ramping up ... saying closer to 10+ inches coming ... Ive got a 12 hr shift tomorrow, so that played into my decision also not to go .... good luck to those who do get out .... our gun ends tomorrow, 1 week break then ML opens next Saturday .. archery stays open till the first Sunday in January, and the 'urban/reduction' zones are open all of Jan. ending the 31st ...... oy vey .... Indiana is now at 104,970 killed, 4th best year in the last ten yrs td so far ... .....

    ~20 people expected for dinner, so taking a day off from hunting. Got 2 turkey breasts on the smoker and this joker stops by to taunt me…

    CJ and I are in the blind this morning with rifles. Last weekend here, it closes Monday except for late muzzleloader in a nearby unit. Does and bucks on the menu this weekend. Got a couple inches of snow yesterday.

    I’m back home, nothing after that unknown deer. Going to watch some noon college football and depending on how the game is going will determine if I go back out.

    The weather forecast for today here said rain all day, 35 degrees in the morning and 15-20 mph winds. I stayed up late and then slept for 11 hours.

    My system isn’t quite sure how to process that much sleep and I feel kind of strange.

    Need coffee.

    Once the rain quits I think I am going to slip out for an afternoon hunt. Cloudy, rainy, and windy here. Hopefully they will be on their feet headed towards food.

    Okay, so I'm not the only one who can sleep those kind of hours. I actually do that pretty often. Not by choice, my bladder dictates the need to use the bathroom a few times throughout the night. This pattern makes me need the catch-up sleep. Getting old ain't no fun. :sad:

    I'll be heading out for an evening hunt shortly, probably one of my last for the season. I find this depressing!
