Twas the night before xmas oops wrong story LoL!

I start tommorow at 8am for Spearfish,SD to hunt with my new friend Bob Speirs of Crow Creek hunting . United airlines has changed my plans for hunting tomm. night arrival time wont let me make it to the stand early enough. So since Ill be the first this year on the ranch i decided to pull back and watch the fields the 1st night and get a idea whats in store for me . They had a good snow last weekend which shifted deer movement some , but they should be ok now. I really want to hunt tommorow night but dont want to risk bumping any deer. So thats that . I just found out Ill have limited cell service as well , hopefully text messges will get through ok. If not I can drive about 5 miles at night for updates for you folks. Pretty pumped ,wont sleep good tonight

Ill be in touch with my trusty texters tommorow morning.
Tim

By the way this is a bow hunt all day saturday,sunday, monday, tuesday and wednesday morning getting home late that night

Update:

Got a text from Tim this morning. One of his bags was 3 lbs. over 50, so he had to rearrange things, but got it done. His bowcase is a little fatter now.

Good luck Tim!

Just got a Call from Tim. Good to talk to you Tim

.
He has landed in Chicago Ill. Getting ready to get a bite to eat. Then get his next flight to Rapid City SD.

Tim called whom he thought was Matt in Ill(hoytnmuzzyboy) before he called me. He was having anice conversation with him telling "Matt in Ill" about how he just landed and was about to get a bite to eat and to post the update to the forum.....Matt said sure I post whatever you want. It was then that "Matt in Ill" said Tim you don't know who you are talking to do you.....Turns out Tim called Matt Morrett from Hunter Specialities and not Matt in ILL.

Tim said Matt Morrett is quite the jokester so he was playing along with the entire story
