I poured the concert for my Kennels. I think that is hardest work I ever done. Never want to do it again at my age. It was 47 degrees when I got up.

Goooooooooooood hunt last night. Deacon treed twice and both dens and Jason female split treed and squalled the coon out of her den. They were treed about 75 yards apart. Not bad for a 11 months old pup. Had a buddy died Sunday. Tom Lipe from Murphysboro died. He was a Master of Hounds and a Bench Show Judge. He was a member of our club. He was 55 years old and he just retired in Dec.24,2011. Retired for four months. Never know.

In the eighties here today. I mowed the yard today. Then got the puppies out and sat under the big oak tree with Ariat my Aussie that stays in the house and she played with the pups while I watch for hawks and owls.
