Hunting

We’re in the middle of August, October 1st isn’t too far off

Who’s deer hunting this year? Got any stories or tips, or anything at all to share about deer hunting?

I’m not an expert hunter, but I like to say, when you go hunting, just relax, don’t try so hard to make nature obey your will. If you use a shack or blind, bring your phone and read an ebook while you wait for deer. I often read a whole chapter before I look out the window, and when I look out, many times there is… something there.

I believe I had a buck in front of me last year, in October. If my eyes weren’t decieving me, it had two antlers that were about six inches long. But, of course, I bumped my bow into the wall when I picked it up.

Alaskan White

My cousin Anthony lives in Alaska and probably gets this beer at a lower price than the rest of us. I’ve been looking for it since he recommended it. Partly because trying different beers is a hobby of mine and partly because the name “Alaskan White” makes me think of beer coming fresh from a pile of snow in Alaska, which makes it right for hot summer days.

Finding Alaskan White isn’t easy. Not very many stores in Michigan sell it. Today I was on the Alaskan Brewing Co. website and they have a feature for locating stores that sell their beers. I checked that out and saw that there are two stores in Davison that sell Alaskan White.

My dad and I went into Davison to pick up food. We went by the A&B on Davison Road, about a mile or two west of State Road, and I bought their last six pack of Alaskan White. Now I’m home. I already had one and I’m almost done with my second.

Overall, it tastes like beer, but there’s more to it than that. It’s a smooth drink and there’s an icy flavor to it. I recommend you try it to see what I mean. It’s good stuff. If you can find it.

I finished my second. Opening my third now.

Armed citizen saves lives

I’ve been saying it for a long time. Armed citizens can make a difference in these situations. Last time I got into a discussion on the subject, someone said she doesn’t think more people should be armed. It didn’t cross my mind at the time, but I want to say that I’m not calling for more people to be armed in public. I just want the people who are already licensed to carry to be allowed to carry.

The story.

Tonight

So, my brother’s over with his new guitar. We just got done watching Beatle videos on YouTube and going over our knowledge of the Beatles. Now It’s Nirvana. He’s still going through his second beer and strumming his guitar. I drank all the rest.

Beer

Just back from a full shopping spree at Kroger. I’ve been trying to find a beer called Alaskan White, but no luck yet. I went up and down the beer aisle at Kroger, they don’t have it. So, I settled for Miller Lite. I’m not a big fan of light beer, but Miller Lite is an exception. I took a liking to it a while back, and I find it especially good on hot days.
