I had a run in with one of the sub-humans today, and it was one who wasn't even man (or woman) enough to face me, meaning my concealed carry gave me no help.

I logged into my bank's website to make a payment on a credit card that I haven't used in a while and was surprised to find it $200 over its limit.   someone in Georgia decided to take a cloned copy of my credit card out for a little shopping, and it appeared they were rather generous. They even bought gas for several different people at a gas station on Christmas day.

So, with an hour of sunlight left, on the last day of deer season, I sat, glaring at the squirrel that danced circles around my tree stand. I hadn't seen a single deer in 3 days of hunting, and was ready to admit defeat.   As any hunter can tell you, deer are stealthy creatures, they slink through the woods with only the occasional crinkle of a leaf to give away their position and they are a shade of brown that simply disappeaars into the colors of the autumn woods.  Squirrels on the other hand, are the woodland equivelant to an elephant walking through a field of bubble wrap.   So, when I heard a huff come from behind me, with only an hour of the season left, I kney that once again, the deer saw me before I saw it, and the squirrels have foiled me yet again.

So, I stood as slowly and silently as I could and turned, I was surpeised to see a small racked, but very large body buck with its back to me, huffing and stomping at another squirrel which was doing it's best impression of a 5 year old stomping on a pile of dry breakfast cereal.   I was sad to see the small rack, since in PA a buck needs to have atleast 3 points on one side to be considdered "legal" so I decided to get out my phone and take a picture instead....but as I zoomed in, I saw that this was not a little 4 point, but a 7 point, well fed to a good size, but poorly bred that it had such a small, yet legal, rack.

Is it just me or is it typical of every Walmart Sporting Goods department country wide ?

Not that I like buying guns/ammo etc from WallyWorld but the Federal 9mm and 40S&W prices can not ignored whilst this latest promotion is on - and thereby hangs the tale!

I had to travel to three different WalMart SuperCenters to eventually get 100 out of the 400 rounds of 40 that I was after - but even that is not the issue!

After a week of only seeing one doe, my brother-in-law invited me up to his house for 2 days of hunting fun. so Thursday night my wife and I packed up and made the 2 1/2 hour treck from Harrisburg to Caonton PA, now the last time I was there, this town made that town from the movie Dante's Peak look like a sprawling metropolous, and since then (about a year ago) the town has really grown up...they now have a traffic light!

Anyway, about 2 hours and 28 minuites into our drive, I realized I left my 2 antlerless licenses sitting at home, but since I still had my buck tag with me we decided to leave that for a later panic attack since it was Thursday night and Antlerless season didn't start until Saturday. So, off we went into the sprawling 120 acre plot of land they call Tick Hallow.....no really, I'm not kidding, that is what they call their place (the place my sister called a steal at the price they were asking...I'm still not sure if she knew it was called that before she bought it)
