Out with my 8 year old daughter in Colorado county. 51 degrees with 3.5 mile north wind. Feels like it getting colder.
Bucks look run down on camera. Lots of hogs and coyotes.

As the morning begins to take over, a dreamy foggy morning, 2 packs of coyotes drown out all other sounds beginning their morning howls in the distance , one to the east of me and the other to the south.

I tried to be a snowflake today. Decided to go comfy. Just a pair camp pants, mossy oak long sleeve and new balance. Figured I would crank up the mr buddy. Wrong. It won’t light and I’m freezing. Serves me right for trying to be spoiled.

I saw 1 buck, a 6pt, walking to my stand. Other than that, nada. May pack it up and walk back to the house. Wife is in bed sick, so chances of scoring there are zilch bang
