Disced 11 acres here at the farm today...run tiller over tomorrow then seed over the next few days...appears to be a total of 15 foodplots offering 9 varieties....much more to do before season.

Nearly always have  my infield deer hunting projects completed well  before season. Have Millenium Blind Buck Hut Tower Blinds on order for months. They were delivered to the dealer yesterday morning and  was there with a 20' trailer in less than an hour.

Picked up 9 kits and started assembly this morning. Appears that taking this on will be a saga project. Not even willing to estimate how many will be assembled and set up in the field this season.

Taking a break now...the horseflies were wearing me out...knew I shouldn't have trimmed the hair on my tail.

A few years ago, my cousin and I built a stand from 3 tiers of scaffolding, complete with a pvc roof to shed snow and rain.  The bases are set on doubled up, pressure treated 2" X !2" blocks and all four corners are secured with tie down straps to trees.  During a recent storm, one of the trees snapped, so we will be cutting that tree free and adding a new tie down to a tree a bit further away.  and we will be brush hogging the trail into the tree line.  A lot of wild strawberry vines that are out of control due to the copious amount of rain we have had.  They are 2-3' tall and are a serious tripping hazard.
