While waiting on the heads to boil I got my last bucks hide fleshed and in the rack, almost ran out of room in the rack , guess I need to make a bigger one just in case.

My girls just chilling , got Beau's head finished and though I was about to catch up, until Thursday morning,I was in a stand on the other side of the farm and was having a good morning, seen a couple bucks but can't take one of them now and just waiting on maybe a doe to wander by, he texts me at 10 after 7 and said he had a buck down, so now the work starts all over.

Nice 130lb buck, wide 17 1/2 inches, but not huge 8 point. Good morning.

Friday evening the Boy Scouts showed up and started get ready for the weekend, they always put to rest at least 100 American flags on Saturday night along with all kinds of skills test and compations. Great bunch of boys that I really enjoy, been doing this for 15/16 years and have watched a lot grow up and mature.

Times of plenty, for sure! Lots of Bucks taken here, with the Rut going full bore. Always like seeing the Scouts too.

Pappy, I'm glad you are getting use out of that brain blaster. It sure makes it easier to clean them. Good to hear your better half is on the mend. I'm going to try my best to make it to the Classic this coming year. It's been too long. Congratulations on the deer!

Ya pretty busy weekend, Got the doe given to me skinned and boned out yesterday and Beau's buck draining so 2 left to process and package, freezer is filling up and that's a good thing.

Yes Clint that things works like a champ, thanks for sending it to me, much appreciated and yes hope it works out you can make it back down, as you said been to long, I miss seeing you and all them yahoos that hang out in your camp.

Now that Miss Joanie is on the road to recovery it's my turn, headed to doctor this morning to see about my shoulder, not any better so I feel sure I will be laid up for a while, guess I will get to see how all this stuff I do works with 1 arm, at least it's my left arm and I am right handed.
