Well that is it. I caught an investigation Friday night and it has been a booger to say the least. I am finally done with the case, everything turned in ect. I was supposed to be off all week this week but that investigation threw a wrench in the fan. I couldn't leave with all the work pending and evidnce sitting around the lab.

I have the truck packed. All I have to do is stop by Jared's and head home. Kiss my bride goodbye, load the dog and off I go to Kansas to shoot some big birds. I am shooting Canada geese, my podna thinks he is shooting Canadian geese. I should be in Dallas by 10PM, grab a few hours sleep. Up at 4:30in the AM and we are going to burn that highway up!! I am glad I took the hubs off of my flatbed trailer. I wouldn't have made Dallas and dang sure wasn't making it to Kansas and back. I had two bearing sets I needed to replace, one was dry enough to be concerned. The last one was good to go.

I shall be reporting back from the KS fields.

good luck!

Thank you Dave. We shall see. I am getting mixed reports. You don't know for sure until you get your butt in the mud and the steel in the air.

Have a safe trip, we'll see you when you get here

Good luck sir, hope ya have a awesome hunt.

Wack a few, Heading to AR after work today for 6 days

Have fun......well, at least as much as you can without Hogman and me along.

Hogman is along.

Why didn't you come crow??

Never came up in conversation. Was just told the Arkie deal was off......miscommunication. Dangit.

Well? Myself being someone that loves a good goose hunt I'm dying for pictures and a report.

We drove to a city X and found the geese had pushed away from the area. Our host was a gracious man and did wht he could do. We hunted his pit blind and had good success shooting cacklers, specs and honkers. I love that pit blind with the roll top. This was a new experience for sure. I will post pics when I get them loaded.

Our host is a crusty old waterfowler. He was interested in call making and we talked for a while about calls. He went to his house and brought back this 100 year old fence post. It is Hedge, which is excelent call material. Hegde is also known as Osage or Bois De Arc. The most common name of the tree is a horse apple tree.

Nice work sir. Glad you got a little shooting in and a some birds.

Glad ya'll got some shooting....better than a poke in the eye....
