I stayed in my climber 'til 9:55 this am. Sat through a few bief showers during my sit. I walked home, hoping to jump in the shower and get a cup of coffee to warm up. Just as I finished hanging my hunting clothes up to dry, one of my brothers stopped by and told me his pump had quit on on him. Soooooooooooo, two of my brothers and I pulled and replaced it. Everything went smoothly, (except the soaking rain and sloppy wet lawn) and he was only without water for about half a day.  I usually won't miss a chance to hunting during the last two weeks of archery, but tonight I'll stay in and try to get warm all the way to my bones. BTW, my brother knows how much we hunt this time of year, so he called a few plumbers before he asked us to do it. The earliest one could do it was this Friday, so I'm glad we could help him out-----I'm a little tired of sitting in the rain anyway. |

Went up to camp Thursday morning, came back this afternoon. Thursday and Friday weren't too bad, but it's so wet up there, can't take a step in the door yard without making a muddy footprint. Even worse than it was for opening day of archery. Poured Friday night into Saturday morning, rained all day. Third Friday night in the past month, that it's poured and caused flooding, or at least bank-full streams in the area. They've been trying to replace a washed out bridge on a twp. gravel road down the valley from camp, for over a month. It's been tough, since that stream has flooded three or four times since they started work. They were setting precast concrete panels Thursday when I went up, had to sit for 20 minutes while they jockeyed trucks with panels on them, onto the gravel road to the bridge. Much of what they'd accomplished until up Thursday, got washed away again Friday night. Cut more firewood Thursday and Friday. Spent Saturday putting varnish on the knotty pine I'd installed a few years ago inside the shanty. Better late, than never, but my eyes are still watering. Hauled in more firewood yesterday, now the yard is full of tractor tire ruts.  Gotta stop raining someday, right?  |

In the healthcare world RSD is Reflex Sympathetic Dystrophy. Something you don't want.

When I saw the title of the thread, I thought you, or someone you know, was diagnosed with RSD. I was relieved when I opened the thread up and saw what it was. RSD is a horrible disease. |

CDC predicts 1 in 2 Americans will have a STD in a few years. Currently it is 1 in 3. Pretty scary stuff.

28 years ago when Her Exalted Highness moved in with me, my life insurance agent was bugging me to buy more insurance. Had to go to an RN's place not far from here and give urine/blood samples, due to the incidences of HIV back then. The tests were free and the results were negative for any STDs. I declined the offer for more insurance. Some time after that, she was fussing at me one night while one of her gal pals was at the house. about how "socially active" I had been in the 12 years of being single, before she'd moved in. Told her it didn't matter, because I now had a certificate attesting that I was "dee-zeeze" free, asked her if she had one? Her girlfriend lost it, laughed so hard my gal told her to go home. As for the rain, spent five hours bush hogging about five acres today at the gun club. Hard to believe we've actually had a few days of no %#$& rain, didn't wanta miss the opportunity. |

I got pretty wet this morning from a couple brief showers. Didn't see any deer. The only wildlife I saw was a fat 'possum that passed clumsily under my stand while it was still too dark to see anything that wasn't very close.
I'm seeing a few small bucks, all legal except one, but little else in the way of deer.

We were supposed to have rain this morning. So far, nothing. Radar looks like it will get here soon. 39dergree with heavy showers at times might make for a short hunt this morning?
On thing about hunting in all this wet weather; it makes it impossible to hear the deer coming in. It has always amazed me how much noise a chipmunk makes scurying through the leaves even on the days when a deer moves without a sound.

Got another inch and a half overnight. That's two and a half inches here in the past 24 hours. Whoopie.
Glad I got the bush hoggin' done earlier in the week and this is why. Be too soft out there now, to take the big tractor into those areas.

I remember a rainy opening day of buck season.I parked at the barn and walked up to the first tree line.A dozen other hunters went up into the woods.When a shower was coming in I dashed back to the car and stayed dry.I did this all day.The others got wet and cold and left by noon.I saw some doe in the evening and returned tuesday morning to dry weather.I had the place to myself.Went up in the woods to a large hollow with a spring and took a 14" 4 point.

I've killed a few deer in the rain/sleet in rifle seasons. Not my cup of tea these days. Might melt?

Except for Tuesday and maybe Friday, it looks like pretty good week coming up.
I have to do some cabinet work(They were supposed to have things ready 2 weeks ago). If it can't be finished up by early Tuesday afternoon, it will have to stay unfinished til next Monday-I wait all year for this week. I have reminded them several times.
