    Bright and early...ham sandwich, flask of coffee, Old Grouse with Stones in hipflask, whistle, gun, ammo and male dog and off to my usual Opening Day haunts, then go and look see in another area in the afternoon...cannot wait...just got to go easy until then and not hurt myself before the 3rd...taking the whole week off...so hopefully nine days of happiness... Poor Harry, neighbours son and my shooting companion, had an incident involving a bike, dust and a big hole with him the worst off, so he is not available on Opening Day...

    off in a week, chase some stags then ducks til mid june....... don't hunt upland til later on in the season but may have to get into them earlier as most of the easy birds must get shot by lab owners..
