August.

I went out to hang some trail cams and do some scouting last week. Every spot I wanted to hang a camera had something wrong with it. There were 6 random dudes in one spot doing god only knows. ATVs were flying around everywhere so I had to stay off the trails. Blackberries and blueberries were everywhere so a bunch of old hippies were out filling bags and mouths. I finally just gave up and went to the spot I deer hunted last year and of course someone had a bear bait set up that hadn't and won't be hit because there aren't any bears in these woods. So I hung one  camera on a blueberry patch just off a trail with decent cover. I got one picture of a fawn in 8 days. There is just a ton of feed right now. Acorns and berries are everywhere! I found a dead cow moose skeleton though which was cool. I get to meet Tom Miranda, Larry Weishuhn and Aaron Lewis this week! Oh, and my son for the first time too.

Love these signs. Just wish people would abide by them.


Rusty cooling off.

Deer tracks.



Moose remains.





Lots of coyotes out here. Hopefully this wasn't the fawn I got a pic of.



Somebody stacked up a large pile of big pieces of quartz. I took a couple for my driveway.





I haven't been doing much fishing lately. The guys from Daddy Mac Lures came to work and showed us their offerings and how to fish them. They make some pretty great stuff. I will post any successes I have with them if I get to fish them. My brother did some fishing back in Michigan with some friends and they were pretty successful.





I've been trying to get the dog to the beach as much as possible. Softball finished up last week and we won the championship. Our garden has been giving up some pretty good roughage too.

That baby is due any day now.









Dog bite I got while playing softball...long story.
