Well I got the comode repaired in the cabin,the ac figured out and food plots disk up and ready to smooth and plant this evening and Friday, also pick up seed for the plots ,winter oats/purple top turnups and a food plot blend, lime and fertilizer, man I will be glad when deer season gets here so I can get a break. ;) ;D I need to be shooting my bow  putting up another stand or 2 and sharping heads. :)
Looks like their is going to be a bumper crop of acorns[white and red] and loads of persimmons so the food plots are for late winter,if it stays warm like last winter they don't even need that. :) :)

I'll need your help Pappy putting up a stand on George's place this weekend.   ;D  I need to move a ladder stand Woody let me borrow. 

I seem to have lost my dang climbing stand.  Either I left it on the porch here at the house and it was needed by someone else without permission or  someone liked it in my garage more then me.  It's a Summit Viper and I can't find it any place here at the house.  I'm gonna be sucking this season without it.   :'(

I may end up having to learn to hunt from the ground.  And the Whitetail Classic is just around the bend!  My team was gonna win this year and I may have put that at risk!   ;D ;D

Oh well, at least I get to go to Twin Oaks and see the deer weighed in.   8)

See ya tomorrow Pappy.  I talked to John Thomas and he's all hot to trot about shooting and arrows and stuff again.  Man I missed him not coming around.  He said he'd be there early tomorrow morning so I'll see him around 8 am.  Not sure what I'll do this weekend.  Maybe work on the Yew!  Yeah that's the ticket!

I picked up some more arrows today.  Half a dozen 1916 Easton's for the Black Widow.  Ripped off the plastic vanes and put on Turkey feathers I grinded when I done Pappy's.  They look sweet.  Try not to drool on my arrows Pappy. 

Pappy is short arrows again and it's almost hunting season.   :-[  Must have happened when he missed all the targets on the 20 target "C" Range for the Whitetail Classic.  (Oh crap wait.  He spanked me on the course.  He shot a 162 and I shot a 160. I have to admit, he shot his Selfbow and I shot my Widow Longbow with aluminum arrows.)

Well tomorrow I'll build the fire and smile and miss my friends who are not there.  I can't wait to see them in a few months as they filter in from far away.

Yay Pappy, for fixing the commode.  Never fails, there's always something that needs fixin'.

Yep, I gotta think about putting my food plot in.  I might be a little late, here.  I planned on planting up a section that I have pumpkins and squash in.  If all else fails, I'll just leave them where they lay and harvest only what we need.  The deer around my place kinda like them too.   ;)  Gotta compete a bit with the neighboring farms to keep the deer around here.

This weekend is the opener for small game.  I'm going with a friend up to northern Michigan.  Maybe a squirrel or two will end up in the cooker, if all goes well.  Thinking about coyote hunting too. 

Bummer Jon, about the tree stand.  I'll miss seeing my pals down there too.  Hopefully, we'll both bring some stories to share on my next visit.

Hope all is well...

After my stands are up Jon, ;) ;D ;D Beau has a climber I am sure he would let you borrow,he mostly hunts from lock ons.I think it is a viper also. Matt it is just about right time around here,I usually get them out to early,don't really hunt over them anyway so up good later in the year is better.  :) I got them all in yesterday so now I can focus on a couple more stands and some shooting.Still got to dig out all my cloth and hunting gear,only a week to go.Can't wait. :) :) You are right about always something to fix,just hate it this time of year when my mind is on other things. ;) ;D ;D Headed down as soon as I can get away from here.Going to try and get the stands up so Saturday I can relax.Hope yall have a good weekend. Life is Good. :) :) :)

No chance of food plots where I'm hunting down here, everything is under water.

 If you have to pull the trigger, is it really archery?
