I will be at home at Camp Old Glory this week end Sat & Sun. :cheers: I will be hunting fish and that should place this post under hunting and fishing. :roll:
I will also be doing shovel work under the front pourch. :bounce: I need some strong backs and weak minds to assist with this project. :shock: I need to do this while the water is down. :violent1: I can and WILL do it by myself if needed but it would be nice if a few of the people that said they would help when the time comes, were to show up this week end. :toothy7: (I can see that I will be alone this weekend). :scratch: Fortunately I understand that folks have a life outside of mine and when they say they will help, it comes at a bad time for them AND me. :( (Will, this would be a good time to help ME )
On another note, I harvested 60 more eggs this evening and did some more awsome videoes of the hawks. :cheers:
With the water going down, the wadeing birds are returning to the s.w area of 2A. :thumbleft: This morning while on a tour in the central area of 2A I came accross a flock of Egrets, White Pelicans and Wood Storks. 8) On the way home tonite I saw more than 300 birds. :thumbleft: I will video my ride into work in the morning to record more of this spectacular event. :toothy7:
It's tough going but some one has got to do it. :scratch: :salute:

From the time the sun is up. :shock: I've got the tools and will cook lunch around 2 because I know folks go to church to confess their sins and will be in an accident and will not be able to come out, so I don't want to start too soon and have too much food!!!!!!!!!! :roll: However, I will be doing the same thing Sunday if the project is not completed. :scratch: I don't wait on any one when it comes to getting a job done. :cheers:

When this project IS done then we can party with the ones that come in late. :lol: :lol: :lol:

5 hours under the pourch on my knees and I now have enough stock for my ramping in front of the front pourch. :roll: My legs don't work quite rite but should be better after a few Bud Lites. :lol: :lol: I will start striping the sod in the morning. I have to save the native sod for replanting since sod is a commodity here in the glades. 8) While under there, I found eggs that were fresh layed within 3 days. :cheers: I also found eggs from last year that never hatched. :( The turtles that layed them were not aware that the eggs would not hatch in cool soil. :scratch: I saved 15 of 20. That's 15 that would not have hatched. :cheers: Just a little for conservation. :toothy7:

Dave I ran into an old German girl and she said, you should watch Gerald make Donuts!!!
 
We got a lot of work done in two days time. 8) Thanks to Blackwater Airboats and Quack Attack for their manual labor. :angel4: I did not exspect much help this week end because of Mothers Day and we all know that if Mama ain't happy then nobody is going to be happy. :lol: It WAS a short notice. I can't plan much ahead because I now work for someone else and their scheduling is on rotation, 7 days a week. :( BUT don't feel left out guys, the water is going down again and I have much more to do. 8) 8) I'm scheduled for Mon. & Wed. then I'm off for 5 days strait. Picked up more eggs today, I'm now over 500 already. :cheers: I found a clutch under the house that had been laid recently and was able to save 15 of the 20. :thumbleft: 5 were damaged by the shovel but if I had not found the clutch, none would have hatched because it is too cold under the hose. :dontknow: I found 4 other clutches from last year that did not hatch. :violent1: It's like when the turtles hatch in the yard that I was not aware of, the hawk gets some of them and if they make it to the water the gators, fish and birds get them. :shock: If I'm here and see her drop down and pick up a turtle, I can go out and pick up whats left. :toothy7: If it wasn't for her, I would not have saved ANY of them. So, she gets some and I get some. :salute:
Quack Attack, I hope your'e muscles don't keep you up tonite. You did a hell of a job. :salute:
