~Hunting Season~

You can tell when its hunting season.. You hear of more
cars running into deer this time of year more than any.
The hunters in the woods are of course scaring them.
Ive seen 2 does run through my yard already. Which a
buck is the most desired of all the hunters.. Although,
Some counties do have a doe season just to keep the
herds down, they do that up north I know in the UP..
David was more likely to get a doe than a buck , but
he got his share..

I can remember when I was about 10 or so when my 2
cousins would come up to the UP from Grand Rapids to
hunt with my Dad. That was a fun time.. Usually they
brought a couple friends as well and they would rent
rooms out at Ice Lake. They all would hunt all day then
come back in the evening, hunting hours are sunup to
sundown and you have to be out of the woods.

My Grandmother would come and help my mom fix a nice
big supper for them and they all would sit around later
telling stories of what happened in the woods that day.
They had LOTS of stories, I wish I could remember
them all... What I remember best was when my older
cousin brought his son.. he was about my age and we had
some fun together.. He didn't hunt every time and we
would walk down to Iron River and look around.. That's
when it had stores ! Not too many stores left up there
now...

My right hip and leg bone are aching really bad and I
have NO idea why.. I have tried sitting lopsided to take
the weight off and I have tried laying differently but
nothing seems to stop it.. Its been acting up for about
a week now... It will start to throb at my hip then I can
feel the achey as it moves down the bone.. The bone
in my right is a lot shorter than the left..They only
left about eight inches if that.. Its hard to measure...
Don't matter how long it is.. the stinkin thing HURTS!

Plus I have a stomach ache, its really hunger pangs :-)
I made my cabbage and brats n' potatoes yesterday
and I have to say it was EXCELLENT.. I made enough
so I would have enough for today, plus this stuff always
tastes better the 2nd day.. So after I post this I am
gonna have some lunch then take my pill and THEN see
if the Packers are playing today.. They won last Sunday!
Farve is such a traitor, the Packers are still a good team.
Ask anyone in Green Bay, gotta be a PackerBacker to
live there :-)

Post time, food time, then game time.. This GORGEOUS
WEEBLE is ready to enjoy this beautiful SUNNY day. I
Cant forget my "I SHALL Return!" tho :-)

Y'all have a good one now, Y'hear ? luv ya and thanks!
Always, Lois ****

"God Bless You" is my prayer today,
I'm honored to call you Friend...
I pray the Lord will keep you safe,
Until I write again....

    The autumn has changing weather and that brings on aches and pains. I have a small glass of wine which helps. There are other things which also help. I made a cream of Potato soup Sunday - yummy.Feel better.
