With the morning air temperatures beginning to lower and the smell of Fall  in the air, mixed with talk about rendezvous and hunting seasons and all the outdoor forums discussing hunting here and spotting there, my blood is getting all pumped up!

I have promised Mobile (Mo-Bile) to take the 10 pounds of ground venison he gave me some time back and make up some jerky for this years hunting season.  Well, it’s now marinading in the fridge!  What does that tell you about my excitement?

He is planning a scouting party this coming weekend in the area he drew for his Muzzy deer hunt and so I promised him I’d get some jerky so they can munch on it while they are out scouting.  Guess where his muzzy deer hunt is?  The San Juan Unit!  What a coincidence!

Add that to the excitement I am already experiencing!  So he promised he will look for elk as much as he does for deer.  I told him that even though he spotted some elk, they won’t be where he sees them come my hunt, but for him to see some and maybe bring home some pictures would once again add more to my excitement!  As if I need more.

Hurry up Muzzy hunting season!
