UP
Leaving Fri. for 2 weeks grouse hunting in the UP. Cant wait, I am a week later than normal, but it should be ok, as it has been a little warm. The old VHE 20 is packed, along with the J. Manton 20 ga hammer gun with 30" twist barrels. COB will be in his cabin just 10 min away, so hope to meet up with him.
I took a bad fall just 2 days after returning from Hausmann's, and partially tore my right rotator cuff. Did 3 months of PT, and while it still bothers me, I am back to playing tennis. Just happy it didnt require surgery. I was able to shoot sporting clays all summer.
Betty, my beloved setter, had a bout with Geriatric Vestibular Disease, which mimmicks a stroke. I am grateful she has recovered and should be able to hunt. She is 11 yrs old, so i will cherish every day hunting with her .
I thought Edgar was going to try and sneak her home with him at Hausmanns, he took quite a shine to her.
I will of course post some pictures after I get back, but have no internet at the cabin, so will just leave the laptop behind.
Looking forward to hearing of everybodys hunting trips. Good luck.
