    Put all my eggs in one basket, I was wrong when I told VS I wasn't worried about the weather. Mother Nature wins, she sucks, but wins none the less.

    First time I've had the moon and the sun both be the problem at the same time, clear skies both at night and day with mid 70's for temps equals my caving.

    Unloaded the 4 wheeler and put back in the garage. Rain is looking less for totals Tuesday so may get out then, but looking like Wednesday will be when I hit it hard. Rain should make for quiet movement and may use the guillie suit for the first time one of them two days. Find a locked up couple and try to make a move. Temps nearly to freezing Tuesday night will be a welcomed change and I'll sit 4-5 straight days sun up to sun down.

    And speaking of @virginiashadow , he was the inspiration behind the boonie so his post the other night got me to thinking and maybe a bit superstitious.

    Arrived today and awaiting the next hunt morning wake up. No more falling asleep on stand.

    Falling asleep may be anither story :lol:

    Arrived today

    When you say cup, are you referring to a mug? normally use a Yeti tumbler, you may be saving my life here :lol: I've never really delved into anything past Folgers or Maxwell House depending on which was on sale for $5.99 at the time. a 5lb canister usually sits in the fridge for 2-3 years before I toss it out at about 4 1/2 pounds and buy one with an expiration not 1 1/2 years out.

    Normally a grab 22oz'er at gas station house blend.

    I'm scared now :lol:

    Also, break the boonie back out, if you haven't burned it/tossed it like you said you were going to. Unbreak the curse

    Not sure now, may need a test run I guess. Probably do so Monday morning as to not ruin the for sure hunt Wed. morning. Not sure how potent the caffeine is, but caffeine has always effed with me for some reason. Drink a thremos at work on a cold day and have hard time falling asleep at night. :lol:

    Nothing for me this evening. Nice 30 minutes walk of shame thru the woods to end my day.
