Buck, I was wearing a harness, I was playing with my lineman's belt, so that kept me close to the tree. Had I been higher, it would have worked perfectly, keeping me right there, so that is nice to know. Great buck pics too, hopefully you can get another pic of him and you together!

Talon...thanks for the tip!

Glad to have you back BKE, the system has been really funky lately.

I turned my greenhouse room into a camo-hanging room this weekend. Put up some shelves and racks to hang all the clothes from. Everything in the fresh air, and no worry about rain. I thnk this winter I may turn that room into like a little hunting "camp" of sorts. Throw a TV, table, fridge out there. Not sure if the woman will go for that though. 13 more days, and I'll be in the tree! YES!!!!
