Turkey Day Part 1. Cold..Cold..Cold..Cold..Cold

Needles and I are back from her family, with bloated stomachs from eating too much and episodes of triptophan waves breaking over us inducing severe sleepiness followed by caffeine spikes of wakefulness from the several cups of coffee consumed while there. Bouncing back and forth is almost like watching a tennis match. The uncles and I went out to move a couple of the deer stands to improve our chances of gunning down Bambi next weekend. The wind was blowing like freight train and with temp around mid 30's today it was colder than a witches mammary gland. Afterwards is when the coffee drinking commenced to warm up from our outside adventure. Needle mothers TV antenna blew down in the storms and tornado warnings we had a week or so ago so with the antenna laying on the ground they could only get a couple channels so I thought in my typical McGuiver style if we could get it up off the ground we might pull in a few more channels. After we found an old section on TV tower we decided to strap it to a heavy metal cart that one of the uncles use and aunt viola the hillybilly mobile TV antenna was born. Needless to say the antenna looks pathetic being held together by duck tape until we get somewhere to get another and have a decent enough day to put it up, but for now they are able to pick up several channels. Tomorrow I have to work but after that we are packing up and heading South to the promise land and more Thanksgiving leftovers. Nothing better than turkey leftovers.
