It was another unseasonably warm week here in Central Missouri. Cold front rolled in last night and put things back as they should be this time of year.

Nothing going on in the garden aside from picking and eating. It’s really nice to look out there and see absolutely nothing that needs to be done.

Mrs. Augie blasted another deer yesterday morning. With the outside air temperature above 70° I figured letting it hang overnight wasn’t a great idea, so I butchered it straight away. I’ve got four gallons of meat bagged up that I’ll drop off at the locker plant today to be made into slim jims. The rest I cut up for chili meat, packed in quart ziploc bags, and tossed into the freezer.

I’ve got a bit of mess left to put away, but I’m holding off until next week to do it. We’re done hunting, but my buddy Nick is looking for one more.

That Mrs. Augie is a crack shot! And a good dancer...? ;)
