I have my semi-annual cold and I am rather miserable. I have a cough, stuffy nose, and almost a straight grain headache. Bounty Hunter 6 called me when I was leaving the Dr. office at 10:00 a.m. and asked when I wanted to go hunt some chizzlers? In between weazes and coughs I said, "In about 1 hour." I went home, grabbed my gear and went for the ride to Iron County to help out our agricultural friends.
I was shooting my .223 Rem. most of the time and Bounty Hunter 6 shot his cute little CZ .17HMR. We did our duty ! We shot for about two and one half hours then started home. We had a great conversation on the way up and back, with sweet remembrances of chizzlers launched into the air by projectiles up to twenty feet high. I never thought agricultural "work" could be so fun. Physically, I still feel crappy but had a great time. I could have been sick at home watching Oprah on TV or I could have shot about 100 chizzlers and been just as sick. Bounty Hunter 6 shot about the same number of chizzlers so all-in-all we saved maybe 1/2 ton of hay this morning.
OTHER NOTE: My son and his son went turkey hunting Saturday and did it up right. check out the photos --
