Outdoors: What next?

Tuesday morning, I harvested this year’s deer, a 2 ½ year old buck just right for the freezer. The morning hunts were not without there setbacks, however. Opening morning as I left town, the steering on my pickup seemed a little “spongy,” and a quick stop revealed a low tire, causing me to head back home for air. I had gotten up late to begin with, so the sun was up when I got to the field, and 2 deer were already grazing just below our blind. Another morning as I left town, I realized my hearing aids weren’t in, meaning another quick trip back to the house. These little inconveniences reminded me of a much worse morning deer hunt ten years ago that could have been called “Doomed from the Start.”
