Well, one of the really neat things that I like about Wisconsin is the outdoors. There's water just about everywhere with ponds, lakes, and rivers. There is amazing wildlife sometimes sitting just outside or flying overhead. Fortunately for me, I took my hunter's safety course early. September 1 marks the opening of hunting season. It starts with Mourning Doves, geese, and the list goes on. So I started with doves. They can be pretty challenging since they hit over 40 mph flying across a field. I shot only 2, and they taste pretty good. However, with a bag limit of 15, I wouldnt consider it a success. I hope to find a better dove spot next year since they've pretty much left the state already. Squirrel season is open now, and that is some serious fun. I've bagged 2 Grey Squirrels (not ground squirrels) and they are easy to clean and cook, and they taste pretty good too. Ive used my 12gauge shotgun, but will probably use my .22 with a scope to make it a little more challenging. I also just got promoted to assistant manager at CVS\pharmacy a few weeks ago and Rachelle has the opportunity to pursue her dreams of her career in art as well as taking care of the kids full time. Wisconsin is great!

I'd agree, Wisconsin is great.
What can you kill that has fur?, looks like I'll need a warm coat.
