Today was a little warmer than yesterday. There’s nothing like sweating up a storm when you’re just trying to walk a short distance. I’m not a fan of these warm temperatures. I’m hoping it breaks in the near future, but it doesn’t appear that it’s going to. I’m glad I don’t live in the South. I’m not sure I would enjoy hunting as much if I had to deal with high heat all of the time.
It was 37 degrees on the way into the woods today, but it was around 60 degrees when I came out in the middle of the day. I had a good time today. I enjoyed every minute of being in amongst nature. Although I still haven’t seen a deer this year, I’m enjoying my time afield. I could never ask for more than that. I’m looking forward to my time in the Midwest. I hope we get some good weather. I’d like to experience a morning in the stand with frost-covered leaves littering the forest floor.
I’ll be headed north again next weekend for our opening day of rifle season. It’s supposed to be in the 80s this week, so I’m going to take the time to get caught up on a few things I’ve let slide since I returned home from Colorado.
