Labor Day weekend is often the time when things kick into high gear at hunting camps. No question, there will be lots of ATV's, tractors, mowers, and other equipment loaded into pickup beds and trailers for the trip to get a lot of work done. And many a wasp will die, or otherwise get evicted, from box stands.

headed West tomorrow to get work done and of course dove hunt - hopefully the weather cooperates. We've got a blind aptly named Hooterville that needs to be cleaned out....

Dove hunt and maybe fish
I hunt a very,very low maintenance deer lease and I like it that way.
For it is not the quarry that we truly seek, but the adventure.

Thursday, Friday dove hunting on a dove lease close to home do some chores. Friday night go watch the kids play football. Saturday morning dove hunt public land near my property then disc 5 acres at my place, grill some dove and drink some beer. Sunday morning back at public land then go back to camp for beer, grilling and football. Monday slip out early so I can hunt my dove lease on the way home.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.

Hope to go out to the property Saturday during the day and finish the feeder pen and top off feeders and mow a little. Sunday relax and watch football and Monday shoot the bow a little and get ready.

Dove hunt Friday evening if the rains hold off. Oklahoma Football Saturday and possibly some bay fishing on Sunday. Looking forward to the first weekend in a long while where we don't have anywhere definitive to be.

Hunting, working on the place and COLLEGE FOOTBALL! Man, I love having a dish out in the middle of nowhere. Being able to watch everything (including local Houston channels) at the deer lease is the primary reason why I've stayed with satellite service at home for well over a decade now.
