One of those off days that have you running errands that are necessary, but completely unwelcome and taking up precious time from the things you want to be doing. That was the way my day started out today. But I'm not one to be totally deterred from my goals that I have set for myself when I'm not at work. So....this afternoon I was finally able to grab my 34 and some pellets and hit the woods for a short afternoon hunt. I had just walked to one of the spots that I like to hunt and stopped at a big oak that I have all the leaves cleared from around the trunk so I can walk around 360 and not make any noise. About 30 minutes in....spot one coming down a tree about 20 yards. Took a head shot, and he flipped right on over and hit the ground. I walked over to collect him and spotted another one on the ground running away from me. As soon as he stopped, I was able to drop to a knee and popped him from the kneeling position. I gathered him up and had to go. Still got home in time to fix my daughters flat tire before it got dark, clean the squirrels, put them in the freezer and settle down to a nice tall beer. Now the wife's home...
