This weekend I went duck hunting with my friend Mr. Terral. We left at about noon on Friday to go set up the blind. We paddled out to the spot we had chosen before and began to set it up. This took about three hours, and because the season didn't open until six fifty Saturday we did the work of setting up the blind on Friday. Once we were done we paddled back to the car and went home to get a good night sleep, because we had to leave at three forty-five the next morning. Well, the next morning we woke up and got the gun and some shells, then we went down to the lake and began to paddle out to the blind. When we got there we placed the decoys, put on our camo, and loaded the gun. After that we got comfortable and waited for a couple of hours for the ducks to join our decoys and for the season to start. Then, the first shot! The shot rang through the morning, and then boom, boom, boom, boom, boom! The other hunters began to unload on the incoming ducks. The ducks didn't stop coming and and after a few minutes we had shot three ducks. The ducks had thinned out, so I paddled out to pick up the ducks. This continued for hours and the time came for us to leave. Well we paddled out and went home. We had gotten six ducks and we went home to clean them then I had to go home so he drove me home. It was so much fun!!!!!!!!!

that sounds really fun Adam. I have wanted to go duck hunting for a while. is that the same day we had a soccer game? Are you going to get your huntings permet so you can shoot the ducks? I bet thoughs ducks are going to tast pretty good.
didn't you like shoot back three feet. i know that you and brother terral (i think i spelled that right) are good friends. it must suck that they have to leave. what is the blind? see you at church.
Being outdoors is fun. I'm glad that you had a successful trip. It sounds like you have done this before. Great description.
That sounds like a fun time. What did you do with the ducks? What exactly is a blind? I have always wanted to go hunting, but I haven't come around to it. If real duck hunting is as fun as the duck hunt video game, then I'm in.
That sounds like a ton of fun, except for cleaning.
That is a pretty trippy blog. Didn't you say your friend almost shot you (accidentally I'm sure, he he). It sounds like shooting ducks is easier than convincing your mom and sister that it is legal and you're going to anyway to shoot the 15 pound mooching peacock that has lived with you for about a year. Mind you this peacock has also caused damage to our truck of epicness and my dad said I could shoot it. I will eventually triumph over the peacock menace as my pellet gun won't kill the stupid bird. I am accepting donations of any firearms to vanquish this beast.
Adam, That sounded really fun. I have been duck hunting before. I went in Eastern Washington. We got a lot of ducks. This was a well written entry.
