I wonder if the spigot will get shut off now until towards the end of August That wouldn't hurt my feelings one bit if that happened.

I'm glad that I planted my last plot a week ago. Hopefully the couple rainfalls since then were enough to get the plots started since the forecast looks dry for the first time all year. The soil is really wet, so the new roots won't need to travel far to find water.

I just pulled a SD card that had been out since late May. That was when I threw out a 50 lb. trace mineral block. The block was gone today when I pulled the card, so I went through pics trying to see if a bear stole the block. Nope, it just slowly disappeared thanks to heavy deer use and shitloads of rain. I don't think I can recall have a block get consumed by deer and rainfall that quickly in the past. I need to go to town and get another block I guess.

I had a sheep protein block and a trophy rock out. Both are nearly gone and I dumped loose tmsalt on the location. The protein will be gone well before deer season.

I really miss being able to put out salt and mineral blocks here once cwd arrived. It was the best way to get a summer inventory and normally the deer there in august were there all year.
I’m pretty sure I’m one of the only hunters in the neighborhood following the salt block ban though.

I believe the ban here was lifted a year ago or so. I grabbed another block today in town and tossed it out a bit ago. When I got off the atv and lifted the block to toss it out, I swear I heard a bear "woof" and take off. I hope the block stays put.

Nice rain today again for about 30 minutes. Perfect timing once again.

We caught a nice unexpected shower tonight, which was much needed. We have plenty of moisture deep in the soil, but the top few inches are really dry.
Tonight’s 3/4” should help all of my plots pop.
