Temperatures are finally moderating and the rains will end today. Looks like I’ll be able to get into a tree stand this coming week.
One rather large setback in my hunting plans is the closure of two nearby deer processors. By asking around, and by research on the Tennessee health departments website I was able to locate another is roughly 20 miles away. It’s a ‘setback’ because, while this is an excellent butcher, he will only process deer that are field dressed; he does not do taxidermy, he is closed on Sunday’s and Monday’s, and I have to take the bones with me when I pick up the meat. More on these ‘sorrows’ later.
