Crossing from Iowa into Nebraska we got to see some nice storms raining on the dead corn.
   

Gary and I got out of the rain in Omaha and picked up a few last minute items at some foremost outfitting store then headed on to Lincoln to meet up with our third hunting partner. Looked at some P&Y mounts he's collected from this ranch over the years and did a camp checklist.

Intel from the ranch says no water over on that side and water will be the key. Leaving at 5am so we can have camp up by 2pm and start scouting around. Will have a few double bulls and my penthouse to replace some of those little pop ups with.

All in all looks really promising, too bad it will be several days before I will get close enough to a cell tower to post any more updates.

What coincidence, I'm living in Box Butte county.  Its a good week to hunt, while its dry the temps aren't 100+ like its been almost everyday for the last month. Good luck and hope you two have success flinging arrows at those prairie rats!

Well no goats on ice, but good stories for the campfire. 18 hours to home...

I'll spill the whole story as I get time, but here is a picture of our camp.
     

One morning we were all out hunting we had 5 goats move in and bed down a out 150 yards up the hill from the tents. We put a stalk on them while lunch was cooking but didn't get it done.

Here is just an example shot of the kind of country we were in.
       

I'll be posting more from a real computer when I get back from Michigan along with some   stories. But today is a day to drive!
