DEER SEASON 2015 DAY 3

 we have now gotten to day 3 of 2015 deer season and i get a call from the woods fro lar letting me know that he scored again and he needed the bulldog to help bring the deer out of the woods...he told me where we had to go and i said you had better come and drive it as i wasn't sure how to get there ...so he marked the cleaned out deer and and marked the "SPOT" with some toilet paper and came back home...

got the bulldog and off we went on an adventure  to bushwack thru the pucker brush to the spot to where he had left the deer....i never would have found him and may still be driving around looking..

got the deer loaded up and off to the butcher we went after a hot cup of tea and cookie..

so life is great  and we are thankful

today schedule is to pick up the 2 deer from the butcher and then spend the rest of the afternoon wrapping the meat then going to the freezer and make room for the both ofthem...

OPENING DAY 2015

saturday nov 21st was the opening day of gun deer season here n ny and you know who was out  before sunrise to get his good spot to wait for the white tails to come for a visit...he went to his favorite spot in the pines and sat for a couple of hrs...saw nothing then it was time to move..went up the hill to the really big oak tree (oh it has been there a couple of hundred years and borders ours and a  couple others neighbors property)...then he saw some movement out of the corner of his eye so he turned a wee bit to get a better view of  what might be there...what he saw was 2 bucks looking at each other and watching what the other one was doing...lar picked a spot and thought which ever one of you gets in the spot i will take a shot...well the 8pt got there and lar shot..one shot and it was down...

we now have  a plan that he is to call me so i can take the bulldog out to help him get it back to the house...lar called at just the right time as i was about ready to finish up the pumpkins muffins i was making and had not turned on the oven yet...so finishing  that job was on hold time to get my shoes on find some orange to put on and head for the woods...can you believe i had a heck of a time starting it but finally it was running so off i went...where the deer and lar were was in a perfect spot right along our road in the woods so hardly a drag..the deer loaded in the bulldog and back to the house we went...i had called the butcher before i left the house to get on the list as some years he gets so many he has to turn them away..that done...

so now the deer is at the butchers and we won't starve this winter..

so all's well at 464 and soon we will be heading south...

life is good--god bless
