We have snow on the mountains now. Mornings just below freezing. Had a great competition shoot last weekend. Muzzleloader and black powder cartridge shoot. I took first place, only guy with a flintlock against the Quigley rifles. Rolling blocks, winchesters, etc.
Had a great time. I picked up a full size 2 yr old bull buffalo hide to sleep in at camp. Super warm. Winter camp will be a lot nicer this year!

The sun is rising way south of Timms Hill now. It’s my benchmark for fall and spring.

We had the hardest frost of the season last night and the ground crunches as you walk on it.

39 this morning with a storm approaching. Later this afternoon we are expecting rain and wind with gusts to 30 or so. More rain over the weekend and again on and off next week. Been working hard getting ready for winter. Put the pontoon boat in the shop for the first time. I knew it was longer than the old one and it sure filled up the shop. Should have built a bigger shop (says everybody )

What you don’t see is my workbench to the right of the yellow mower. It’s a disaster with crap all over that needs to be put away. Been saving that project for a rainy day. Since I had to empty everything out to get the boat in I did a mild cleaning sweeping too.

That rainy day to finish the shop is today and tomorrow. 40 right now with rain and wind expected. Looks like fall is here with a vengeance with a cool wet week ahead.

My shop is a mess right now as well. I've been cracking Black Walnuts for the kitchen and they explode often sending shards all over the shop. When I get done I will do a thorough cleaning. Another problem is my wood turning lathe. It tends to send shavings all over the place. What I usually do is open the door and use compressed air to blow it all out.

I thought it was a great game.

we enjoyed it .... when my wife sits up that late and watches a game it has to be a good one

A friend came over with his post hole drill and we set a 4x6x10 to mount the Star Link on.
Now all I have to do is run the cable into the house. Right now it's temporarily just sitting
on grass, but working great.

38 and very breezy right now. Very windy and lots of rain yesterday. Not crazy about the wind but the rain is greatly appreciated. More rain expected for the afternoon. Cool with rain on and off this week. Thursday is looking dry and partly sunny so we may take the UTV up north where the fire was this summer and do some “sight-seeing”. Won’t be a pretty sight for sure.

I have a bunch of piles of limbs covered with tarps for winter burning. I’d better check them today and see if my tarps are askew. I weighted them down with some heavy thick limbs so hopefully they will still be in place.

[Mags]

45' and another dark and stormy morning. Maybe 51' with continuing rain throughout the day.

Chilly at camp this morning, 28F and windy. Shot my flintlock, always a good time.
