Not much going on in 1. A few weak bugles in the morning. Passed on a thin 6x6. Probably should have taken him. I looked up the numbers from the helicopter yesterday. Not game and fish. I am definitely reporting it.

They must have been a few different places. I only saw one other person where we were at and he didn't have a tag. Not many people where we are at. I saw one utv pass my camp this morning.

Yup. Orange jumpsuits with doors open. I have video of thier last pass. I've never been more pissed off in my life.

Lots of good action in 1 this morning. Then a helicopter started flying down all the canyons. It saw the elk i was watching and they literally rounded them up and drove them out of the canyon then they flew away. Game and fish aerial survey? Maybe driving them to 27 to lower success rates in 1? I have the numbers from the helicopter. I'm tempted to call it in.

Make them pull the pan and check rod bearings at a minimum

Bulls are definitely bugling in 1. The wind better start cooperating though.

Maybe I should just stay home then.

I walk as much as possible and take the stairs. Right knee has a stretched ACL left has tore up meniscus and each hip has 3 bolts in them. I can't handle any impact at all. If I jump down out of my truck wrong I'm laid up for a few days. I'm taking enough pills with me to open a drug store to get through this hunt. Its going to be brutal but worth it.

In the late 90's when fab 12 was being built i worked out there non union. It really rubbed me the wrong way on how bad we were treated by the union guys. Name calling, threats, and just being total a holes. Over the years this has not changed. I travel the lower 48 the Caribbean and Canada for work and its the same everywhere. Work union live better bumper stickers on rusted cars with ladders bungie corded down being driven by dudes that cant afford to eat lunch and look like they haven't showered or changed clothes in a week. The electricians and welders for the most part do not fall in this category, but there always a few exceptions. I know they are not all the same. My buddy in Minnesota runs an electrical business and their shop is union. They have a core group of guy that they keep year round. They will create work for them so they don't lose them to another shop. He said their overall comp package is very good. He does get those guys like i mentioned above and they don't work out there, they send them back to the bench. Maybe a lot depends on how the shop is ran?

i haven't hit weights since my bellybutton turned inside out doing leg curls six years ago. The majority of my time after a 14 hour day is spent in a hotel room. I have a foam roller that i use for squatting my body weight, push ups, crunches, etc. I watch my calorie intake cut back on soda and keep my beer to weekends. I've dropped 18 pounds and it has stayed consistent for a few years now. I do miss the fitness rooms at the hotels because that was my only source of cardio. Next week should be an azz kicker chasing bulls.

My wife wants to wrap her car. Black is hard to keep clean here. Maybe when it cools off in a few months.

My parents are meeting me next week in unit 1. They were a little bitchy since I do t camp in campgrounds. Maybe I'll send em over to reservation lake.

Interesting article. https://www.elk101.com/2020/01/which-week-for-elk-hunting-in-2020/

I stopped by bashas last week to try again. Produce literally had mold in the baskets they use to display. Donzo I will never go back. Sprouts is my go to now.

Reminds me of escudilla before it burned down.

Nice setup. A friend of mine lives just north of the cities. He has land/cabin somewhere in Northern MN and in Wisconsin. My office is in Chaska and it looks like ill be up there in October for moving our office and manufacturing. I told my boss I'm bringing my bow and he might not see much of me.

Yes.

Yeah I'm heading out Tuesday morning too. I hope my camp spot is open.

I like the forecast

Then why are you on here?

We should take to the streets and riot until you are made whole by this great unjustice.

one more month.

Baseball just did the same thing. Losers. The guy had a knife on the floor of his car where he was reaching, disobeyed orders, and got his stupidass shot.

Thats the funniest crap ive seen in a while

Basket ball? Never knew there was such a thing.
