John, that's a neat old building remnant. Looks like a great place to explore.

I got up at 2:30 am to drive an hour to where I know there are at least 6 Toms that hang out together. I had planned an in-the-dark sneak across a large field and through a wet bottom so that I could take advantage of their movement patterns...and so that I would not flush any hens on my way in. Just as I was leaving the truck the heavens opened up and it rained hard and steady. Back home by 5:30. Will try tomorrow, but rain is predicted again. That's turkey hunting for you!
