It was an unusual year for me for camp. With only a few days available away from work it was more of a long weekend. Nonetheless camp is always a magical place. The weather has been unusually warm and wetting fall in Michigan and the starting weekend for the rest of the gang was exactly that. Roads were closed and the Armstrong creek grew to levels not seen before at camp.
My arrival brought a break in the weather and cooler temperature (not taking credit for that). The boys had just finished a evening around the campfire after cooking a whole lamb on a rotisserie grill. I pulled in to a plate of Greek salad and lamb. As usual the cooking was impeccable.
Turkeys were non existent on the property this year. There were no acorns on the oak ridge so birds had moved to other areas. The deer were also scarce up on banana ridge. With a second year of no doe harvesting allowed even on an archery deer tag it made for slim pickin's of legal targets. More to come......
