Day 2

Thursday, Day 2 of Deer Season, I spent my day off with Joe in his deer blind, vacationing. Not a typical vacation though. Getting up at 5:30 a.m., throwing on every winter clothes you own, walking into woods in a pitch dark, then spending the rest of day sitting in a chair you had to bring in. I say this every season, but deer hunting is work. 
We sure had spectacular views from our window. We even saw several deer, mostly in the morning. Not much happened after lunch, probably because I snored. Yes, I did catch some z's. 
Then right at dusk, a mama deer and a junior came back before a pencil-point spike showed up briefly. I couldn't even see his spikes in the fading light, they were so skinny. Joe wasn't to take him anyway. He is really hoping for this beautiful 6-point that had been on his camera. Up until the night before opening day.... Joe's buck fever is setting in.
