Default Back from crappy long weekend

Well I have had better weekends. I got out to the new land on Friday afternoon and did some low impact scouting. I saw tracks but no birds. I couldn't roost anything so I just went to bed to try in the AM. Saturday came and I got out an hour before dawn. I soon had a couple of birds gobbling and got set up. I didn't see anything until about 8:00. And then I was coughing so bad that I think I could be heard 300 miles away in Dallas. Needless to say those birds didn't come in.
I have a horrible upper resperitory infection. I packed up and came home Saturday afternoon and spent Sunday and Monday in bed. I'll get back after them later in the season.

Aw man, what terrible timing. That stinks. I had that about 6 weeks ago, and was sicker than a dog. Fact of the matter is, I'm still coughing. Hope ya feel better bud, and better luck next time.

Weekends like that are tough to take, especially opening weekends when you have high hopes. Get well and get back after 'em
