Sure been hot last couple of days, makes my mind want to think about icy water and waterfowl! Of course dove hunting, hot as it can be, is the ceremonial opening of fall and hunting season - and it is only three months away!

Old Hunter,
Have to give an "Amen" to TripleF's post! Across the water, there is a structure in the 2nd picture, is it a duck blind or a deer stand? Keep the pictures coming! Treefarmer

AH nothing like sitting in a ground blind and collecting your thoughts ::hmm:: and leaving a puddle of shavings.

Guys, as my AAPK nickname implies I love to hunt, so don't egg me on or I will share my entire hunting album with you! Did I mention I love to talk about, write about, and dream about going hunting?? Treefarmer, that picture was taken in eastern Arkansas this past winter on 14 JAN after a morning hunt in the brush on the edge of a flooded field - you see Shelly (my cigar chumping buddy Jim's, chocolate lab) retrieving a duck from. We were on an old farm road south of Brinkley near the Cache River, getting ready to clean those ducks after a good morning out gunning, and then begin the drive home to eastern NC (a day and a half drive, minus the time spent at Bass Pro and the Smoky Mountain Knife Works). In the top picture the white rectangular form directly on the left is part of an abandoned mobile home that was a farm office at one time, the other structure that is right behind the mobile home is part of an old barn or pack house that is in pretty bad repair.

Ps There is a deer stand in the bottom picture on the far side of the flooded field, they hunt deer in that beanfield until duck season, then flood it and hunt ducks.

I got some much needed R&R this past weekend. We took a little weekend excursion to Waitsboro campground on Lake Cumberland in Somerset Ky. Pics show my little camping rig and a couple views of the lake from our campsite. Geez, we had a good time!!!

Just got home from settin' crawdad traps. I snagged these 2 and about a half dozen 6 inchers while I was there. My record for these is eleven inches and nine inchers are fairly common. We'll see what's in the traps in the mornin'. ::nod::
