    Oh yeah....

    I had my alarm set for 4:30 this morning but I woke up at 4:00 so I got up, showered, made a cup of coffee and looked at the forums. I need reading glasses to see the print on my MacBook.

    So I finally headed out the door at 5:10, sprayed down and headed out through the woods. I kept thinking everything looked really strange. I could see my handheld GPS clearly but everything else was blurry.

    I finally made it to my tree, climbed up, got all set up and it was only when I went to put my face mask on that I realized I was still wearing my reading glasses.

    Stupid.

    We've been in the blind for a bit now. 50's rain. Me and the two boys in the one blind. Grace is solo in a different blind about 200yds away. The kids are looking for just about anything.

    My girlfriends mom just got her results back this morning and she is positive and we have been living with them while we look for a house. Almost a guarantee I've got it. I really have no reason to leave the house as I already work from home.

    do regular denim bib overalls count?

    I like bibs for cold weather hunting but then I gotta wear pants with a belt underneath so as to carry my...accoutrement.

    The rain has finally stopped after 3 days. I'm headed in to my very 1st hunt on a state forest. I'm glad I check the regulations because I needed a special state forest permit.

    If you want to drive 500 miles and hunt done terrible grounds, all the while listening to 1000 gunshots 1 hour before sundown, have at it!

    I have several bibs wool,cotton and wool blend.
    Helps keep a draft off the kidney area.

    For most work days, Duluth trading co. Bibs are great. Worth what they cost.
