Well, today was mildly productive. We got a late start due to a dead battery in Neal and Uncle Bob’s rental car. They tried to get it exchanged at the airport here, but Budget Rental Cars are independent of one another, so they drove one out from Edmonton for them. Quite nice of them.The late start seemed not to affect much as there were very few geese flying or in the fields. Seems that geese rest on the Sabbath or something. Given the numbers seen yesterday, most may have still been full. By evening, we were seeing far more. There were at least four fields with easily two-hundred birds a pieces. We have permission for two of them and will check about the others tomorrow. It should be a good hunt.

After this morning’s scouting, we went to Gordy’s — having failed to find a cafe for breakfast as the one in Bezanson abd Debolt are out of business — once there, we off-loaded the trailer. We put the full-bodies together, got our stuff that Gordy stored for us, and then packed the trailer again. I still think the trailer needs shelves and other organization. It should open more space.

We also got permission for Tofer’s place. It had geese landing in the volunteer canola just the other side of the trees from the lake. Apparently other stuff is growing in it. It’s looking good and I’m excited for tomorrow. We have our licenses and our field lined up, and tomorrow we take Gordy and Allie out to Dinner at Golden Star. 7pm.
