at 11:00am on Thanks Giving - boy what a day from hell. I spent Wednesday, Thursday, and Friday at my Inlaw's in Ludington.
Wednesday was great, a bit cold but great, I went out and opened up my parents cabin, took the girls for a run around the 85 acre property edge, no grouse found, but they are there somewhere, then met with Rudi's Dad for a walk through his personal pheasant heaven, we moved 15-20 birds in his food plot. It was good to see birds on the wing, we sat in his basement and played with Rose and Rudi, shared stories and shopped maps. I told Dick I was not going to fish that day but I did anyway. Did not catch anything but my face froze.
My brother in law showed up Wednesday night, the winds were brutal and after running the dogs for all of 20 minutes at a Soccer Field on Thursday Morning, I finished off the Upland Equation by Fergus (great read BTW but you pointing dog guys would not like it, due to his comments on best dogs for grouse hunting). Well it was 11:00am and my BIL Steve said, you ready? I said sure, so we played Gin for an hour and drank, then the Lions came on, did I mention they suck.
I took a nap in the second half, had a bowl of pheasant chili I made....Overall it was a nice day, but I guess I get a little bored.
