    I’ve had a corneal infection since Wednesday.
    Can’t wear my scleral lenses so I’m almost blind. I’ll put them in for a little while tomorrow so I can get out in the morning!

    The only stand I’ve been in today is the living room recliner.

    Only wildlife I’ve seen today!

    Keep your head up. Can happen to any of us. It’s still early in the season. Hope it works out so you can try a dog.

    If he’s dead which looks like he will be then he will still be dead tomorrow. Plus you’ll have better light and give him time to expire

    Well we are having a tough time. Found a lot of blood (lighter color) Then it just disappeared. Hard part I'm in some thick nasty cover that leads to an overgrown thinning that has weeds taller than me (which I'm 6'5)

    Sorry. I bumped dislike instead of like. I hope it fixed!

    Yes! He is a French Brittany! He’s a year and half old now.

    I got him from an excellent breeder in NE Texas. They breed exclusively for field trial and hunting. He has incredible intelligence, prey drive, and a willingness to work! I’ve never had a dog that learned so quick. It can be challenging as he doesn’t always learn things you want him to! Lol

    Saw one tonight and with in range. Pretty small deer. Thought it was a button buck at first (smaller size, still relatively early, all by itself) but it think it might have been a small 1 1/2 doe. It was thick where i was at and only had a couple glances of deer to decide. It got a pass. Left a little early because it started raining hard and got dark quick with cloud cover.

    yeah it started up here in Vestaburg right as I got down form the stand. Pretty soaked after a mile and a half walk out.
    Screw you, WeatherBug.

    That's the most Communist, grabasstic BS I've ever heard.
    Well, scratch Maine off the "retire to" list. Right next to PA.
