Hope you're feeling better Buschy. Heard it really takes the wind out of your sails.

Dave, love the donut story! Did the 88 stay home this year? Fine buck by both you and the boy. Love me some heart too.

We handle deer in exactly the same way. That pelvis split is a tricky thing. Borrowed by bud's Buck Kalinga to do the job. $200 knife and the tip of it is still in that pelvis. Oops. Told him I'd grind it down and try to make it look purty. Ended up a fancy putty knife. There's equipment casualties every deer season. $200 lesson for me. Such is life.

Our opener is Sunday. 80% chance of rain. Rah. Sunday night will be libations hunkered down around the clothes dryer. Can't wait.
