I'm not really sure how those random letters got added to the end of the post. Poltergeist I suppose it is the season. 🤣🤣🤣

45 minutes of #BeagleMusic after I got home from work. I'm taking full advantage of Daylight Savings Time while it lasts. I love my light in the evening!

Belle had her first episode of rolling in something stinky which then led to her getting a bath once we got home. 🤦‍♀️😝🤣qæ

It's nice to fit in those after work outings. 👍

I only picked about 20-30 leaves to make the butter. I didn't touch the bulbs. But the ramp patch is on my farm so perhaps I should try some of the stronger tasting bulbs as well? I have not done so yet.

I figured that out after the video. I find all sorts of those square link drive chains by the barn because they are often used to load hay into a barn. This one was way out in the field. I forgot they were used in manure spreaders too.

OK Now I have to Google THAT! 😂😂😂

I still have some ramp butter in my freezer that I made with wild ramps from my farm. I guess that would be a compound butter. LOL

That is a good thing. I'm still not watching. LOL

I am with you. Generally I don't drink at all on work nights but what the heck, I'm currently enjoying a Cayman Jack margarita. Tame but tasty.

Husband: Do you know what compound butter is? (He was watching Bobby Flay on TV)

Me: I do not.

Also me: And I don't care.

Me again: OK now I have to Google it. 🤷‍♀️😆

I love me some college football but I think that makes it less special compared to plopping down on the couch at noon on Saturday. 🤷‍♀️😊

Enjoy! Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday and it is all because of the food on that day and then leftovers for days afterwards. 😁

What? Wait? There's college football on a Tuesday night? I swear I can not keep up. 🤣🤣🤣

The big maple tree behind the house is not quite as big and beautiful this fall because of the drought but the sun shining on the mist in the old pasture does make a pretty fall scene.

Yes I'm up and moving. Feel sluggish like a tortoise. Going to be one of those keep pushing through type days.

Definitely one of my favorites. We have them around here and I get to watch them hunting over the open farm fields.

I absolutely hate the new camera update on Android. It is WAY too easy to move the slider and record video on time lapse which then can't be fixed. This had great sound in real life. ,😭😭😭

Yes. And a very lucky guess at that. LOL

I don't mind their size at all. Of course I'd rather be hunting fox squirrels but it is what it is. I will say that gray squirrels are way easier to skin than a fox squirrel and I don't mind that at all. 😊

It ended up being a five squirrel morning. I misjudged that little one on the end. I had been passing up all the little ones. All gray squirrels. I never saw one fox squirrel. Crazy to think that 30 years ago we only had fox squirrels and no gray squirrels.

Five gray squirrels on the tailgate of the UTV. Squirrels make great table fare.

What would a morning spent in the woods be like without me finding a mylar balloon. It's been a while so I have no idea what number this is for the year.

I red mylar balloon lying on the forest floor.

First stop of the morning. I wasn't exactly stealthy getting here as I felt it necessary to move a bunch of downed limbs on the path as I walked along. 😁 And I forgot my binoculars. I hate that. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ But man this tree I'm sitting against is soooooo comfortable. 😴

A view of the woods. I'm sitting against a large oak tree with my shotgun across my lap.

Good Monday morning. I decided to do some squirrel hunting this morning. I've been debating shotgun or rifle in my head all morning. I think shotgun. Fall turkey is open too and a shotgun will give me options.😁
