DOWN IN THE PINEY WOODS
PERSISTENCE EXEMPLIFIED5:30 AM. 34 degrees, wind calm at present. It is overcast, no moon or stars to be seen and the barometer predicts rain. A piece of toast and a cup of coffee and I will be at the sugar bush before even a hint of daylight, then walk as quietly as I can and see if any deer are feeding under the old apple trees. Then I will go down to the pine plantation and sit until it is time to go home for lunch and a nap.
Noon: nothing doing this morning but I will still go out to my stand in the orchard country and stay until dark on this last day of the regular gun deer season. Perhaps persistence will pay.
