Welcome to my pond - Swim, wade, or sit on the bank

Good morning Pond!
@kwhites634 - congratulations on the hunt!

Pouring rain off and on here...:rolleyes:
Sophomores and choir performances at retirement homes today - should be good.

Good all around. The residents usually really enjoy it, and it’s good practice for the kids. Have fun!

I've see tons of deer in a heated blind.
I'm sure I see more that way than I would see if I was shivering and restless on a cold tree stand.
Last week when I was sitting in that tree in single digits I didn't see anything on
I think cuz it's hard to sit still if your freezing.
I've been a close quarter Hunter most of my life....I have an 30-06 that's great for reaching out a distance.... But would rather hunt open sight at 25 yards...... That way I don't need to have multiple stands...... I'll stay with this stand for crossbow too.....I can hunt till New Year's. But once I think the deer need to leave I'll quit..... Maybe head down to the deer yards before they start dropping their antlers

We have so many hills and valleys, close is much better here. I could hunt over the right of way and get a long shot, but I really don’t enjoy that. I like watching them mill around close.
 
Happy Thursday Pond!
everyone must be super holiday season busy! We are scrambling here. Looks like we might get our first real snowstorm over the weekend so I'm just taking a break from prepping the chooks' area and making sure there is nothing forgotten outside that we may want to see again before spring. DH has gone to town to get the new tires on the vehicle and pick up extra critter safe snowmelt.
Yep.... The glow rocks.
Yeah.... This year we now have rocks that glow..... And jelly fish......:)
Must be something in the water up there! ;)

Now to get the holiday started!

 
Windy & raining here today. This is the first proper rain storm we've had since the new ducks & rooster got here. The Duck Brigade is loving it & Mako is so happy to finally have buddies to splash in puddles with. :wee Iris is so sopping wet his tail is drooped & saggy. He doesn't look thrilled.

Praying for no mudslides for you Orr! :fl:fl:fl
