    Kill them all guys! I’ll be living through all of you for the second half of the season! I might take a second trip to Missouri in late December but until then I’ll be live from work, the bathroom, the kitchen, church, and wherever else my wife happens to drag me...

    My hunting vacation has been a real bust. Other than killing that buck on Day 1 and getting a shot at a good one a few days ago, I've had no time in the woods really. Family comes first but my goodness I really wanted to hunt hard. Oh well was just thinking when I started hunting at age 17...used to walk out the door in blue jeans and a camo jacket with a .3030. Didnt see but one deer in my first 3 years hunting. I guess I should feel happy with my success this year. Just feel I have a lot left in the tank hunting energy wise. I dont like the season to end until I have about 1% energy and ready to keel over. :)

    Something like this? Got these from my buddy a couple days ago when I asked him how he was doing hunting. His reply "I'm a half assed deer hunter but world class fisherman, what would you do?"

    The big one is 33". He also picked up a small salmon.

    I may be ice fishing this weekend if the winds stay relatively calm!

    I'm not seeing much either. A lone doe and a lone yearling. What part of Ohio are you in?

    Eh, if it's the 5.3 its not really too bad. You can change out 1 through 7 in about 20 minutes. You will spend at least twice that long getting #8.

    Made improvement for a few days after the initial treatment now he is regressing fast. We knew this is all part of it but it's been hard to see a kid respond well and get our hopes up only to start sliding back fast. He crashed this morning and cant even get out of bed for school. Now the blood results came back for my youngest daughter and her immune levels are just as bad as my sons. So now we start the 2nd round of talks with the insurance company to get her treated. My oldest daughter seems to be the only kid to escape this genetic/environmental mess of a disorder. 5 more months of treatment for him and doc says it could take up to 3 months for him to see steady improvement. Thanks for asking.

    I can't even begin to understand how that weighs on you and your wife. Stay strong!

    Well the rain soaked the strap on my stand and knotted it up bad. Took my almost 90
    Minutes to get set up. FYI Hawk treestand straps suck. Did find a nice rub on the way in. IMG_5581.JPG
