I ended up not going out this morning as what ever I ate last night had me puking this morning, probably the really greasy onion rings. I did get to sleep in though despite having some really odd dreams. They got 9 more geese this morning. When they got back, we ran errands, and ran out to scout a little. We stopped at Jim Tofer’s to talk with him and Neal had some fish and stuff to drop off to him. Tofer was working to combine his wheat field on the north end of the lake before the rain set in, but apparently it has too much moisture. 18.5 he said, which I’m not sure if that’s a percentage or what. He was headed back to the house as we were leaving out and stopped to have a beer with us. His grandson and daughter-in-law came out to visit as well. The 2 year-old was badly wanting to ride in the combine with his grandpa. From there we headed back to the hotel. We plan on hunting the wheat field again as it still had a large number of geese feeding in it tonight. With any luck, we’ll knock a few more down. It’s supposed to rain tomorrow with winds at 15 gusting to 25 miles an hour. Miserable weather, but great for goose hunting as they tend to go out for more food and fly lower, the strong wind also forces them to land a certain direction. Just like aircraft, they land into the wind since they can stop quicker, or in the goose’s case, not trip and stumble over their own feet. Anyway, I need to get sleep since I wake up at 5 am tomorrow.
