Default Bad News Boys...

Our family went out to the property yesterday.... flood problems... we lost three cameras (2 Moultries and 1 Cuddeback), part of the road is washed completely away (we will have to bring in truck loads and truck loads of dirt to level the road out again, something ate about 50lbs of catfish food from camp, we lost our john boat, we didn't get any pictures (the camera that was still out there had a bad battery and died after taking 5 pictures),andthe other camera we didnt have up.

We still had a great time... pretty much have all of our bow stand sights picked out for fall, we got to see some deer, even a little fawn, ponds are full, and did some grilling out. (BTW it rained again while we were out there when about 30 minutes before we were leavin)

I feel ya oaks! Man I'm tired of the rain. However when it starts really getting to me I try to remember the last 2 years and the drought. Then I just don't mind the rain much at all!
