WHERE IS THE FREE Coffeemaker????

Have to get back on the computer; bow season opened today which naturally, brought rain; sleet; wind; and scattered snow flakes in the higher elevations here. Very good hunting prospects though, and just LOVE that venison in the freezer as well. Buddy wants to sit in my recliner, face out of the living room and shoot the deer that eat the apples. I said, NO , not ethical. Husband shooses me as I came in from chores because he is video taping a HUGE TEN point buck, with a six point and wide four point behind him.

The video tape plays me quietly urging him to "get the shot gun; hey! go get the shotgun, c'mon we have nuisance tags- get the shotgun". Funny how perspective changes......

Good morning all.

I'll start the coffee and let the big guy finish it. THat brush really adds a little something.

It's called "equal opportunity hunting."

Rained here yesterday after work. Decided to skip the hunting.

Cooling down nicely. Calling for posible frost this weekend.(?)

Ya'll have a god day. - JKE

You know you like getting that Big Black Beast sideways just to see the expressions on people's faces.

Something about drifting in a 1 ton gets folks attention!

One more of these graveyard shifts and it's LONG weekend time! I don't have anything planned but I'm sure a thousand things will be just waiting on me to get "constructive".

Wow, snow in Illinois and UP - - sure glad I made it out of there in time. Gorgeous down here - - open the doors, windows, on with the shorts, lay in the sun, hit the pool time.

Hey, coffee's not bad today - - where is the Janitor?

Bucks??? Where? 10 point? On my wall tomorrow, that's where.

We're at 38 also, little frost on top of the hoopdie this morning. Wood stove coming in hand for the second time this year. It's kind of like a novelty now, in about a month I will be dreading hauling in wood every other day.

This weather ought to teach my grass a lesson or two, it's been getting cut every 5-6 days here lately.

Wind got up yesterday and had to close the windows in the house. I was hearing grief that was relentless. Uhh, how about putting on some clothes other than a t-shirt and shorts .

Looking for cool temps this morning and got 52. (?)

Weather speculation expert target no where near actual...as usuall. Guess we will see what tomorrow brings.

Have a safe day - JKE and
