finally got out this afternoon. thought it would be too cold but the bunniies were out. dogs did their jobs, put up about 12. my 20 gauge needs to go visit the eye doctor. missed 5 got 1 lol. it was good to finally see the dogs after some bunnies. thank god for the snow.

Good for you. Sun was out; makes all the difference when it has been -15 for weeks.

I got out today as well, ended up getting 4 out of 6 with my 410. My GSP sure had a good time running the fields and woods after being hung up around the house for a while. My face did feel like it was going to freeze while walking across a field, but had a great time and rabbit stew for dinner tonight.
