Lunch/Brunch – Prepared by Sue Marshall with help from Annie Hoagland and Gigi Harrow who camped for the night at her house. A lovely breakfast with a great variety of food including several kinds of salads and home baked biscuits and gravy.

It was 44 degrees when we started out. It was windy and the wind was coming from the Southeast. Barometric pressure was falling. The temperature started at 44 deg. F and warmed up to 58 while we were hunting.

From the parking area we headed west into the woods. Eleanor went into the deepest part of the woods along the lake. I was stationed up on top. She went back and forth through the woods and then came up to the top where I was. Mary and I then moved further south and she worked those woods and the hillside above Wally’s Bottoms. Then Mary viewed a silver fox and the hounds on its tail up at the top of the hill. Hounds were on but soon lost with the wind. We then headed in for a fabulous brunch.
