Summer doldrums???

I retired (temporarily most likely) in June.  Going to spend time with my granddaughter who was born in June.   Went hunting in South Africa.  Made a trip to Minnesota for the second time this year.  Plus we have made it to numerous shoots. We attended Compton, Cloverdale, KyTradFest, Greencastle PA while visiting Gettysburg and Antietam battlefields. 

We still have to go to South Carolina for our youngest graduation from basic training. He has a week and then we move him back to college.  Plus, we still have more shoots to attend. 

No doldrums here.

I don't usually say much. I like to read and learn and hit the "like" button.  :campfire:

I haven't got much office time at work thus far this summer. We started a project for "Uncle Sam" and I have to be on site daily as quality assurance and safety. Office time allows me to "browse" the interweb a little. We got rained out today so I'm browsing  :biglaugh:

Witherstick, I'm not talking about you having summer doldrums, its always slow in the summer HERE at Tradgang.  That what I was talking about.

All that stuff I mentioned in my 1st post certainly isn't doldrums. Running around with kids is a blast. I'm just ready to here some hunting stories!!!  :jumper:

Just getting back to it after a year and a half layoff. I'd share, but none of my pix look like Roy's anymore. More like Ray Charles.

Yeah Terry !
I’ve been thinking the same thing. It’s been kind of boring lately without any hunting tales. I can’t wait.

Terry, I got what you meant.  But maybe the doldrums here are because too many are too busy between the Fall hunting seasons. 

Not to worry, we’re almost there!

Just returned from backpacking trip in Snowy Range of Wyoming.  Never saw so many high country lakes on one trip.  Fishing was good.  Lost 2 pounds due to mosquitoes!

Loving summer.
Pinched a nerve in my lower back and got talked into trying a chyro-quacktor. Went two times and was actually was getting better when the “doc”gave me the Covid.
Good times.
Over it now, so it is back to prepping for fall. (Got six 4 Blade Deltas so that should keep me busy sharpening for the next month or two, just saying)
I am going to go full in on hunting public ground in the Ozarks.
Mountain hunting has been a frustrating leaning experience, but I am chipping away at it a little at a time.
I have been blessed to kill some really nice bucks in the last twenty years, mostly in the big woods of the Arkansas delta and 3 in Kansas.
 So a few years (or more) of getting humbled won’t hurt.

I hope to be posting my reaction to a new widow PAX Carbon this week.  Weight was missed twice or I'd already have it.

I retired a year ago.  Woodworking projects keep me busier than I thought they wood. Learning to use my drone, rc airplanes, and involving grandchildren in all the above have me hopping (on one leg).

I go tomorrow morning to schedule a right hip replacement.
