Yes, I posted a day ahead! Busy-busy with hunting and butchering, and Thanksgiving this weekend.

Thanks for the ping.

Sounds like a fun weekend.

I got in some range time myself. Good times on Thanksgiving Day.

We had 22 adults + kids at The Feast. A really good time was had by all - I’m exhausted and the feasting wasn’t even at my house! The last out-of-towners left this morning. Plenty of leftovers, so no food prep other than heating up will be necessary for several days.

On the game camera the day before Thanksgiving, the following deer appeared: 2 big 8-point bucks, another big 6-pointer, a spike and at least one big-bodied doe. As soon as hunters (my nieces) were in the stand: nada. My one niece was in the stand well before dawn & as the sun came up, she heard something blowing/stamping behind her, then it moved off. She thinks it was one of the bucks ... wind was wrong & it smelled her. The other niece didn’t even hear anything.

Rainy weather today/tomorrow - going to try to do something ‘fiber arts’ although I’m not in the mood, for whatever reason. In spite of eating all low carb Thursday, I think I’m still in a bit of a food “coma”! I have 3 projects in-progress (4 if you count all the mittens I need to put thumbs on) so maybe I’ll pick the one I can finish the fastest (other than thumbs) & get it off the list and that will jump start some motivation. :-)
