Opening Weekend

[Bill Bates]

Grouse opened for me lasr weekend. Downside was I couldn't get out until sunday afternoon. I don't know why but 80 degrees plus and green leaves on the trees just doesn't feel like grouse season.

Oh we moved one barely out of the nest bird. I let it fly on without even shouldering my gun.

Ah, chiggers! Back around 1980, I fell asleep beneath a tree on the bank of a river just outside of Murfreesboro(?) North Carolina and woke up COVERED with little red dots that itched for months! I am glad we don't have them up here.
