Just because I could

and because Bambi;s mom wasn’t in evidence. I wandered around taking pictures.

Kingsbury is an old military installation. They made ammunition there. Some places you can still see traces of the chemicals they used. The empty buildings are mute- but they tell some pretty interesting stories. Rest of the post below the fold so the page doesn’t take forever to load, lots of pictures. Continue Reading »

Og-0 Mosquitos-996

Having gone afield early for the first time, I can safely say THIS SUCKS GOAT PECKER FROM HELL.

I mean, I love to hunt, love to be in the woods, love the outdoors.

And the mosquitoes are so fucking annoying that it makes me want to live in a spacesuit.

I had a can of Deepwoods off with 296% Deet, and I sprayed the entire can (14 ounces) on me.

THis made the mosquitoes- if you can believe it, MORE annoying. Now, they’re buzzing around my face as if to say “i’m NOT LANDINg on you! I’m NOT BITING you!” It’s like having sixteen billion five year olds in the car.

Didn’t even get to nock an arrow.

Took four minutes to shower the deet off me. And Speedway chili cheese dog farts in the shower is a bad idea.

early season deer hunting tips

deepwoods OFF. use lots. bathe in it. soak clothes in it- even clothes you’re not wearing afield. drink some too. Yeah the deer can smell it. the deer want some too.
