My season has been really good so far. Only thing I can complain about is being sick right now and not enjoy time in the stand. Is this your place in Gillespie County?

Been on the same lease for 27years near Graham. The quantity was slightly down but quality was up. I'm 75 and this year I decide to shoot my buck with a camera. Very enjoyable and a lot less work. I've got pictures of all the bucks taken so far. Just being there was great! That never changes.

My season has been really good so far. Only thing I can complain about is being sick right now and not enjoy time in the stand. Hope you kick that crud soon Sir. My oldest Son just got over the Rona and went back to work yesterday, missed a lot of work over it. He's 25 so kicked it after a couple of days, but he still kept testing positive for a week although he felt fine...couldn't go back to work without a negative test. He works a lot and I'm trying hard to make at least one hunting trip with him his year. The Rona screwed up our plans but I have faith I'll be able to put him on a deer this year. Miss hunting with that boy. Thanks. I made a mistake today by getting out of the house on a very damp and cold morning. I did not realize how much my lungs and sinuses were still effected by this crap. I felt better after day 3 but was not trying to work and staying out of the weather. Today I needed to get back to work even if inside the barn. Feeling the results now. My sense of smell was not totally gone and is starting to come back slowly. Just sinus and chest congestion is lingering. Glad your son kicked it in short fashion. I have heard of lots that kept testing positive and never had any issues, felt fine. Still some season left and late season doe hunts can be just as fun. Not about deer killing so much as family time together. The rest of it always has a way of working itself out.  Life is good. You can make it bad if you want, but this life really is good in the USA. I like late season hunts with the kids. Kid's just want to hunt and be able to shoot something once in a while. They don't give a [censored] about age & score. When my baby girl shot her first deer a couple weeks ago (spike) she went nuts. Seeing her face after the shot was worth more than all the money in the world to me. She said "Dad, why don't I have my own knife". Life is good... Did you get her a knife?
