Ducks

At 6:30 this morning, somewhere in Monroe County, Ga, it was 18°F. I know, because I was there.

This morning was the opening day of duck season for our region of Georgia, and we had a good day shooting.

The sunrise was beautiful, but it didn’t make the situation any warmer. After the hunt, as we trudged through the pond, we had to break ice to find some ducks. And my brother-in-law Jim got especially acquainted with the cold when he decided to jump down from his blind, which just happened to be planted in one of the drainage ditches of the pond. “Man overboard!”

Everyone got their limit, a great hunt.
