-hunt 19, 25 April
I don't know how many mornings this is in sequence, but when the alarm goes off at 4:00AM today, I'm gassed. I walk down the bedroom hallway and flop in the recliner, and seriously reconsider my choice of hobbies. I need a break. I go back to bed, reset the alarm for 8:00AM and plan to hunt mid-day. At 8:00, I don't feel much better, and go back to sleep again.
Finally awake, I eat lunch with lovely bamawife, run an errand, and am rolling from the house at 2:00 PM for a field and decoy hunt on the Mud Club, in the vicinity of where I got a shot last week (18th). I get it all set up, and.....it starts to rain. On and off, all afternoon. Not necessarily a bad thing for a field hunt, but I see or hear no turkeys.
