Waterfowl hunting

You know a lot of people ask me what I do after Cisco's Landing closes.  The first thing is to get all the boats winterized and stored which takes over a month.  You may know how much work one boat is so just multiply it by ten and you will have an idea what I am facing.  There are always other things that need to be done getting ready for winter but my real love is waterfowl hunting.  Today is a sad day because the season is over.  No more setting out decoys and freezing all day.  What I will really miss is watching my springer, Maggie, retrieve ducks.  She lives to hunt and when it come to chasing ducks and bringing them back to me she can not be beat.Waterfowl hunting is just not about killing birds.  That is secondary, while being with true friends and just experiencing the outdoors is what it is all about.  I will post a few pictures and know that the swans are our friends and we do not hunt them.  The ducks provide great organic dinners and duck hunters pay millions of dollars, as a group, to make sure they have habitat and will continue to exist.  I guess it is time to start on remodeling some rooms and try some fishing.  The cisco are close to running.  I can see to add my pictures so I will try again.
