Well opening weekend was pretty much uneventful when it came to putting some fresh venison on the grill and into the freezer. With my son's youth soccer game scheduled for 8:45 in the morning, followed by my nephew's birthday party later in the afternoon, I elected to finish working on the duck blind, and taking the kids shooting. I could have probably climbed into a tree on Sunday morning, but once again, I chose to spend some time with the family around the house since my work travels have picked up quite a bit in the recent weeks with no signs of that changing until November.
Did I want to hunt? Hell yes I did! It's just about all I can think about, and I cannot wait until this Saturday morning with the cooler temperature in the forecast. Hopefully with a little luck I'll be grilling some fresh loins for dinner on Saturday with a celebratory beverage in hand. But last weekend I pulled back on the reigns a bit, and reminded myself that it's a long season....
