The heat is holding on and doesn’t want to let up. It stayed in the high 70s all day. We all hunted the Wheelchair Stand today, but Dad took the morning off. Josh and Jeff ran into a guy from Florida who had a major attitude. We found out he’s the guy who mowed down half of the woods. He seems to have forgotten that it’s a healthy fine for every tree you saw down on National Forest Land. It amazes me how much of an attitude some people have, especially when they lay claim to public land that is open to all of us. Some people just don’t get it.
I didn’t see a deer today. I hunted there in the morning and across the road from camp in the evening. Brian saw the same deer this morning that he saw last night. Then, he saw another nice 8-pointer a short time later. Josh and Jeff didn’t see anything.
Dad and Brian went to the area where we set the stand up for Dad the other day. Brian said we have one good deer on camera. It doesn’t surprise me that much.
Originally, tomorrow was supposed to cool down, but now it’s saying the temperature is going to continue to be in the 70s. It’s not too much fun this year. I guess the heat and everything else going on takes a lot out of the enjoyment of the trip. However, I still feel very fortunate that I’ve been able to spend time with my father.
