Well, it wasn’t pretty, but we somehow pulled out a win. Good teams do that. They win when things are bad. We outgained them by about 300 yards, held the ball for 10 more minutes, but only beat them by seven points. Why? Crappy special teams and turnovers. That’s how you lose a game like that. Whatever. We won, and that’s all I’m going to say about that.
Lots of action from huntin’ camp this morning already. My dad, who does everything about 10 times bigger than necessary, decided he wanted to put his tree stand up today. This is your ordinary, run of the mill tree stand. This thing is a two-person, 500 lb. capacity job that requires the help of four men to put up. So off we go, down the field and into the woods. My dad transported the thing in the bucket of this (again, way too enormous) tractor, and my uncle and cousin and I went on the ATV’s. An hour later, we had a tree stand up that “you can really see out of”, or so says dad.
I snuck in early for lunch because they spent about $500 on food for 7 people for two days. I figured I’d get an early start.
I may take some pics with the cell phone to post to the blog, so if you see some random pics up on here with no description, that’s what’s going on. Unfortunately I forgot the USB cable for my normal camera so we have to resort to this.
Big plans for the afternoon: we’re having a garbage fire. Always high entertainment here on the hill. Take care, all.
