I have hand warmers, I usually use them in my pockets with all the stuff I need. I keep my phone in there too the cold kills the battery quick. I figured I would need to keep the batterys warm to keep them working anyway. The second you get cold there is very little you can do to stop it other than move around. Moving is the last thing I want to do. I appreciate the reply Bamrz, inside pockets are a no-no for me though. I have layers of scent proofing I wear. The last is my jacket. I try to not open it up unless I really need to. I guess I am super cautious like that. I have actually been taking showers for the last month with scent free soap and shampoo. Yes I get nuts aroud now.

Night Tiff!

A guy I know hunts from his back sliding patio door. He puts the coffee maker on the floor next to him and sits there in flannel jammies, drinking coffee and smoking, while waiting for a deer to walk through the back yard. Amazingly, he gets his deer.

All the older guys I hunt with are the same way, wake up whenever the hangover is gone, hike up to their spot (you can see it from the camp), sit down for 30 min and shoot one. Me... not so lucky... I need all the help I can get. But I know that the big bucks are smarter, they do things like watch the other deer from really thick brush. Then after they think it is ok they still circle down wind to make sure. But all I want now is some meat, I would take a wall hanger though... just sayin

Actually, come to think of it a guy I know goes really old school. He learned to hunt from a Native American. He knappes his own broadheads, widdles his own arrows and bow. Wears a thick wool jacket and pants (the fluffy ones...sherpa?) And shoots a buck that could make it in the record books (200"+) every single year. I consider that a buck of a lifetime but every year. There has been a few years he has gotten 2

Mornin' all. Its not even brisk here. Its downright cold. 29 degrees when we got up this morning.

My mom called yesterday. She was going to be heading back overseas tomorrow, but it turns out some Brazilian consulate messed up her paperwork and she wont be leaving for another month. Thats great as far as being able to spend more time with her, but it sucks because that means a month without pay for her.

Gonna be a fun day in the house today. I need to cut the grass one last time for the season. And we have to get the house cleaned up before our post season party next week.

I still have three parents that havent paid though. There's always someone.



I have to work tomorrow so it's time to hit the sack here. See y'all tomorrow and have a good night.
Ow. No sack hitting.

Good morning posse!

40* and super windy here today. Of course it's shingle day for the coop. I don't see that happening. :laugh: All big chickens are hiding inside, and I can't say as I blame them. The little ones kept blowing away so I locked them in their coop.

I'm going to Menards today. Woo Hoo!!!! I always get in trouble there.

Wondering if Dan got his buck this morning......

Wonder if that's why I woke up this morning and noticed I'm growing a third eye. :shock:
