Thanks....

Maybe it's just me, but I like the quiet, solitude, and peacefulness of the woods. Running dogs is probably a long tradition in Virginia, but it just strikes me as odd, that's all.

I took Tuesday afternoon off work (and Wednesday too), and hunted Amelia WMA on Tuesday PM for a change of pace. Now I know why I hate Amelia.... I watched a couple (elderly folks) with three white terriers walking down the trail, and what totally flipped me out was
THEY WERE TALKING REALLY LOUD AND CLAPPING THEIR HANDS TO THE DOGS AND CALLING THEM BACK AND SO ON!!!!!

Thank you very much.... [:@][:@][:@][:@] My afternoon hunt in Amelia WMA was officially ruined for the day.... That just totally flipped me out.... They knew I was there. I mean, they saw my truck and some other dude's truck on the other side. WTF?!?!?!?

On the other hand, I hunted back at Cumberland SF yesterday and tried a new spot overlooking a huge, freshly mowed down/clear cutted field. Nice area. Heard rumblings in the woods, but nothing came close or came out towards the field. It's a perfect spot for rifle season too.
