I hate losing time on the road, but I guess that’s part of hunting away from home. I got home about 3 a.m. We drove straight through. We thought about stopping, but with the bad weather forecasted we decided to keep rolling and it turned out okay. I slept for a few hours and headed into the woods a little north of here. My main concern was to check the trail cameras I left in the woods. I was slightly disappointed to see I didn’t have as many pictures as I anticipated. I did get a few small bucks on film, but nothing of any size. It appeared that one of my cameras had been turned off, but I can’t be totally sure of it. I do know it was working when I left and it took pictures for approximately five days after I was gone. It makes me wonder what happened to the camera since the batteries were still at 75%. When I pulled the card out of another camera within 50 yards of that one I saw a person on the film when I glanced through the pictures. The hunter didn’t know his picture had been taken either. I pulled both cameras. I cut a few fresh tracks in the snow, but didn’t see any deer. Back to work tomorrow for a day before going out on the annual Thanksgiving Day hunt.
