Well, it's turkey season here, finally 
I didn't hear any gobbles or see any signs of any birds.
But I had a good time.
The weather is strange as all get-out here; it was cool, even cold, this morning. I brought my coveralls with me, and I'm glad I did. I was cozy.
But there was also a range fire...I almost got a lot more than cozy.
I kept my eyes (and nose) on the wind, and left at the appropriate time.
The local ODWC resident game biologist (and he is "resident" in the purest sense of the word...he actually lives on the Hulah WMA) came to fetch me when I was on my way out.
The ODWC and the Osage County Sheriff had started some fires designed to burn near the biologist's house to keep the range fire away from it.
Those stood some chance of cutting me off from my truck, so the dude comes and finds me and takes me out of the area on a 4-wheeler.
I didn't have to walk up a huge hill, like I usually do.
So it was good, good, day!
