Turkey Taunts !

Friday morning I went to my next door neighbors home to do an appraisal. We live in town with all the traffic and people you could expect, and while talking to him in his backyard, a turkey flew by our heads and landed in a big pine tree over the street. She sat and stared at us for about ten minutes while we talked, then flew back off down the hill into the woods. The damn things are taunting me!
To make it worse, I finally played golf Sunday and the whole time I was out there, I could hear them calling and gobbling at me. I do not need that kind of distraction with my pitiful golf game. I feel retribution is at hand next weekend!

Oh, I'm with you, man! Not only do I see taunting turkeys all the time, but because I am THE hunter at work, all my colleagues and students feel the need to tell me about every turkey THEY see.

oh, yes. NorCal reminds me...
I tried to contact you and Denise to go with me to the lake (Mt Liberty land) Sunday afternoon for a nice 4-wheeler/snake shootin' adventure. I didn't see any snakes but I did see lots of fresh TURKEY tracks - all around the lake. Also some strange markings in the tracks. Must have been their beards dragging the ground.lol.

I hope you get your revenge this weekend. Hopefully I got mine in a a couple of weeks as well.
