Trust me about the 13th I usualy not wrong about these sort of things. and of course I have one for you at the pig roast, maybe more than one. hopefully Sunday afternoon will put the first of the venison on the table. usualy I can count on Matt for an early doe. Nothin like fresh venison.
Remember Oct. 13th is your prediction for snow flying up Nort der hey. Hopefully I will get a trip your area before the snow sticks to the ground I hate driving up Nort der hey in da winter.
Have fun at your pig roast tomorrow. Drink one fer me. or two.....ok three is good.
