Soon After the Snow Melts Off

[Elk Hunter]

To me one of the great things about spring turkey hunting is sitting with my back against a tree at grey light listening to the night sounds disappear and the sound of the little birds as they start their day. To top it off a Thunder Chicken will sound off and start my blood racing in anticipation of wing drag sounds and the thump-humm of a strutting tom coming closer to my hide. Maybe just maybe I'll get to go this spring.

Darn right it won't be long..........before Kathy calls the men in white suits. I'm not a Doctor, but I played one once when I was a kid, and it sure sounds like early onset dementia. I think you've had one-too-many snowstorms.
