Quick trip to Iowa
Made a trip to Iowa for a few days last week. Here is a picture of corn being stored on the ground. Iowa had a record corn crop this fall and all the bins are full.
Sat out a few times to see how the deer herd looked. Iowa has a late January doe season so I did my part and shot a doe.

Iowa Deer Season 2009
We had high hopes of a great Iowa deer season this year. We had some food plots that were great and some that were really bad because of the wet summer.
This was going to be my lucky spot this year, I never saw a buck even close to being a shooter.

Work week in Iowa.
Spent the past week in Iowa working on the property with Junior Huyser.
We put up three double gates. It went quite well
and the weather was perfect.
The finished gates.
On Wednesday Jason and Dan Huyser arrived to help put up four deer blinds. The blinds were there but we had to screw in the ten foot legs.
At age 80 Junior makes it look easy. He is such a big help for me, I couldn't do it without him.

Back to Iowa
Putting in a gate post.
Went to Iowa this past week with Mary's Dad. Here we are unloading poles that we are using to make gate post.
We put in six poles for gates.
We also put out 5 trail cameras to try to get some pictures of the deer on the property.
These are water tanks that we will fill with water from a pond behind them and use the water for spraying the fields. Before we had to haul water from town on a trailer.
