Deer hunting success in KY.

 Visit the Family in Kentucky. I had an opportunity to hunt private farm land. After the 3rd day, and seeing some small does and spike bucks ( one 6-8 point) . I got a view of a nice buck at 130 -140 yards. I didn’t want to hesitate, so I took a shot of a deer that was quartering toward me. The deer jumped and we never found any blood. We found the deer 1.5 days later. Unfortunately, some coyotes had got to the deer. We salvaged what we could of this bruiser. What a great visit.

Had a race







 



 Last race in the 50year old+ class . Got a bad start (12th out of 13 into the first corner) but I finished 6th. 

Sydney was there for support, and picture taking.


Had a little fire

 We threw away some ash from our fire pit. Apparently there was a charcoal in there that was still glowing.

It caught our trash can on fire, then our lattice, and the flames hit our house soffit, before we stopped it with our hose. The neighbor called us, thank god, and we dashed out to extinguish it. 3 fire trucks showed up. Luckily the damage was superficial










Fixing the fire damage

 We tore out the plastic lattice and replaced it with wood panel in slotted posts


It snows here




 It’s true, it does snow here in North Carolina
