BRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR!! Awoke this morning to 30 degree temps. Just a touch of frost on the pumpkin...if they could grow a pumpkin out here!
The trip west was long and uneventful. Spent the first night in far western Kansas after being amazed (again) by the never ending scenery... who was the guy who stopped his covered wagon and said, "Hey Margaret! This looks like a good place to homestead."
Awoke to much dryer conditions than back home. Even though it had rained during the night, there was still less humidity.
The really cool thing was that when I woke up I still had all my stuff.... see accounts of my last trip.
Tucked in here about 9 p.m last night and after a great nights sleep, I'm catching up on email and PM's and sampling some really great coffee.
Will be dragging out the recurve in a little bit to do some shooting and looking to terrorizing some of the local game before the day is over.
This thread will be kind of a daily journal thingie and I'll try to keep it updated as best as possible.
From my roost I have already seen mule deer, antelope and elk this morning. Not a bad way to start the day.
With 6 days left to season opener, I'll be shooting (at) jackrabbits and trying to help my buddy Iron Bull with a beaver depredation problem.... he's overrun.
Stay tuned and I promise we'll load this thread up with pictures.
