So, I rode my old GoldWing up to an old friend's house in Waco I haven't gotten together with since we rode to Sturgis together in 98. He's my oldest and closest friend, met in my first week at Texas A&M and he was my best man.
Anyway, he has a small farm and his dad farms up north of Waco. He runs an insurance agency and has houses he buys, fixes up, and resells owner financed, makes a decent living by hard work, but he's not a rich man, just knows what he does really well and enjoys it. He lives comfortably, however, and has made his way in life.
We hunted Friday, opening day, to Sunday and I shot three limits. In fact, I shot my limit yesterday in about 4 hours in the afternoon and most of the shooting was in the last two hours of that! We hunted his farm Friday morning and afternoon and his dad's the last two days. There was water there, small pond below a spill pipe of an old tank that has silted in. The set up is fantastic, woods behind that they fly into to roost, the water for 'em to get a drink before roosting, and grain fields on all sides of the water. I had to just stand up the whole time and scan 360 degrees like a radar antenna or something because they were coming in from all sides. Fantastic fun and the old Wing ran like a top the whole trip. I'm a little tired, will have to recuperate tomorrow I guess. Gotta clean up my old Winchester 1400. That thing was barkin' all weekend. LOVE IT!
