Yes, there’s a deer blind or two out in the woods.  No, Vince has not hunted out of them yet.  No, he had not hunted at all.  There’s only about two weeks left in hunting season.  Earlier this week, we had a discussion about the deer hunting.

Me:  Vince, are you going to get a deer this year?
Vince:  I don’t know.
Me:  Are you going to go hunting before the season is over?
Vince:  I took the carpet out of the blinds and need to get some new carpet cut for them.
Me:  Are you going to go hunting before the season is over?
Vince:  I don’t know!

Yesterday he decided to go hunting.  I wasn’t real sure what he was planning but I told him that I was going to the sewing room and I’d stay there til dark or til I heard a shot.  I had just started talking to my friend on the phone and I heard a shot so I went out and sure enough, he had a deer.  But, wait til you see where he was hunting.

The Front Porch Hunting Blind

He was on the front porch!  In a comfy chair!  With a bag of deer corn on top of a table for resting the rifle.  One of his “extra” table purchases was turned over in front of him so the deer wouldn’t see him.  Don’t laugh .. it worked and he wasn’t sitting there more than 10 minutes.

Just when I think living here can’t get any better .. there are places, but not many, where you can get deer and turkeys without ever getting off the front porch!
