    LOL No problem! Used to know how that was! Don't have to worry about it anymore but thank god we are friends now and she has a guest room that I can stay in! Drive from Ottawa to Starved Rock is way better then the drive from Buffalo Grove!

    Looks like the opener here in Illinois is going to be great. Nice temps and the combines are rolling. Good luck everyone.

    time is counting down, it's like getting ready for a new years eve party! The deer should be moving this weekend, friday talking mid 60's for a high and will steadily decrease by sat. night; maybe even frost...

    Alright truck is all packed up and I will be hitting the road soon. Headed up north for the night first to my cottage in Wisconsin. Need to grab a few things and taking my younger daughter out to dinner then heading south first thing in the morning! Hoping to arrive early enough tomorrow to get in some scouting and a good nights sleep! Internet access will be limited for me the next several days but I will try to get on through my phone whenever possible! If I don't talk to any of you guys best of luck this opening weekend!!! Fully expect a bunch of texts throughout the weekend keeping me informed on what's happening!

    MONSTER BUCK MAFIA RULES!!!!

    good luck too everyone! I'll be hunting friday and sat. afternoon. There should be good movement with the cold front and crops being harvested. The moon phase tommorrow is a waning cresent too, which can only benefit us that much more. Let's do it!

    Hey guys I can't wait to get in the woods tomorrow. I will be out in the afternoon and then again Sat. Mornin. My father in law just pulled his camera and emailed me this pic. Not a bad buck. However, it's hard to tell by the picture if he's a shooter or not. Good luck to all and I look forward to getting a few text tomorrow!!!
