..we've gotten about 2"of rain here at my farm over the past 4 days. Everything is green . Mel got a belly ache 3 nights ago because I let him stay out on the pasture for 3 hours without a muzzle. Which means the grasss is growing again. .. and the bugs are out.
But Freddy took his hounds out this past Sunday morning at 5 am. Another foxhunter, whom shall remain nameless, was already in the cornfield that Freddy was to draw, only this fella had no hounds. Thanks to him, it took Freddy's hounds almost an hour to find the fox , and once they got him up, Charles ran right straight to the hole. A run lasting no more than 5 minutes. (Sure glad I didnt get up at 3am for THAT!)
Bobby and I will go with Freddy this Sunday for certain, and perhaps Saturday, also, if it's cool enough. (Forecast is for 66 for the low on Sunday morning, not quite that cool for Saturday's low.) Humidity and dewpoint is key. ...
Everyone is clamoring to get out!
