Yah thats his first one since he's been huntin' at 15. He's 24 now. His first time he let a young doe go to see if a buck came along--- I guess the buck finally came along. He said it was worth the wait. WINDY down by the gateway, crossed the Mississippi and thought it was gonna blow me off the bridge. Too blasted windy too coonhunt tonite if we could. I guess no squirrel huntin' this weekend cause of deer season

Morning you all. Windy here. Going to be nice climbing on the roof of the barn. I have to start replacing those nails with screws. How is the deer hunt going Rex? Hope your hunters are killing out. TD that would have been one big drop off the bridge. ☺ Any sign you are going to get laid off? Chuck how you doing? Linda I guess you are feeding by now or cooking breakfast?

Spotty what does it cost to make smokey links? Kid had deer bacon burgers made it was pretty good. Mike that would have made one big splash. I could have went to the bottom and found some gold for Chuck. May get laid off this week if it rains that means I will be coonhunting and there will be accurate reports.

Went to an auction today and came home with (junk) lots of goodies!!!!!!! They sold a 1994 Chevrolet 1/2 ton 6 cyc. p/u with only 26,000 plus miles on it for $7,600.00 a nice unit but a little pricey for a truck that wasn't 4 wd. Got the cook an old crock for $20.00 A number 3 size, all in all I guess it wasn't a total waste of time. No deer hunt report at this time. Would be a good coonin' nite.

I was reading in the Illinois outdoor news an article about being on the look out for feral hogs something else we will have to deal with when we are coon hunting I suppose. Said they seen a handful of sightings in Shawnee national forest and a few more in North Central parts of the state. Says they may be a threat to invade the state.

Those coons will be a moving target tonight. TD sounds like you bought the best that was there. Something to cook in and fill your stomach. Good night guys.

Rex they didn't want to get shot. They knew you were loaded with plenty of rounds of ammunition. Td and Linda lets go get out of bed and lets get busy. We are burning daylight. Chuck you panning today?
