26 hours to choose what to do this weekend:
To clarify:
#1 finds us in a city park between the lake and Lake Shore Drive
#2 finds us in a city park between the lake and the Rock River
#3 finds us in a wooded environment between the lake and the Rock River
#4 finds us scattered all over the city and burbs rushing to clear the woodchips of coinage and bling and meeting up somewhere central at a preset time to declare our finds.
#5 finds us making Bob pull one of those old maps out again and 'round and 'round he goes until he hits it with a dart.
Okay, the Rock River might be a stretch. We should stick east of the Fox.

I'm good for Friday
or Saturday
or both.
If I can pick only one, I guess Friday since I'll need to burn off all the calories from Thursday.

With such a close race, it's gotta be a site with both woods and turf available. Got one.
PM if you can show on Friday, PM me if you still want to show on Saturday. Either way, there's no cleaning out or hunting out this site. Unless of course Goio, McNickle and Mike Etrac all show up...
Whew, at least TMan is still in Texas...

I hope to be there as well!
Etrac007 let me know the spot. I have only gotten out hunting 2x in the last month, so I look forward to both getting out and seeing you all. Plus to any Etrac users, I might want to chat briefly with you about your machines, b/c I am contemplating getting one.

Dunno John, guessing the area was hunting/shooting ground before and after it was occupied due to bullet volume. Mayo got a mass of super-impacted bullets that looked like those clumps you find in some target range backdrops. Got a couple moderately large cals myself so it might be somewhere back around turn of the last century. |
It's a squirrel gun, get it?
