I know it is only Tuesday, but I’m already trying to make my plans for the weekend. There are a few things in the works and hopefully I can work all of them in and make the weekend a good one.
First off, for all of you Michiganders, Gander Mountain is having its Biggest Archery Event Ever at the Lansing Gander Mountain this weekend. This is a huge tent event and will include a 3-d Archery shoot, 100 vendors, door prizes, free seminars, a bargain tent, and a silent auction. There is suppose to be a representative from Diamond bows there, and since I purchased my Black Ice last year, I would love to visit with them and see what they have to say. Maybe they will even be nice enough to throw a few goodies my way. I might even run into Mike Adams, from UpNorthJournal, and the Hooks and Bullets blog. I know he is going to be in attendance and doing some interviews for one of his future podcasts. Hopefully our paths cross. That would be pretty cool!
The next thing I have planned for the weekend is to check the trail cam. I finally put it back out last weekend, in a spot that it has never been before, and I’m excited to see what kind of results we get. We didn’t hunt this area last year either, because I was slightly in error of where the property lines went. Once the landowner set us straight towards the end of last year though, I knew that I would be sticking a trail cam up in the area and seeing what we found. Jeff and I can’t wait to hunt this area this fall. It should be a prime spot. Hopefully a few growing antlers show up on it this weekend.
The last thing on the weekend agenda is my cousins house warming party. A few of you might remember them from last August when their house was hit by the tornado. Well they are finally getting back to normal and having a little get-together to say thank you to everyone who helped them get back up on their feet. I’m glad that things have returned to normal for them, and I can’t wait to be able to hang out with everyone under much different circumstances then the last time. It should be a great time.
So a great weekend coming up, and in the meantime I hope to get some grass planted in the backyard this week. The weather report is not looking to agreeable for that little adventure though. Now if Friday would only get here!

Sounds like a busy weekend and hopefully it doesn’t rain too much. I am so ready for the weekend and it is only Tuesday.
Sounds like you got lots to look forward to! And I don’t even know what I’m doing tomorrow!:)
I’m jealous that archery event sounds awesome!
Thanks for the plug, I hope we do get a chance to hook up at the event saturday. It proves to be a good time. On another note, I saw you wrote about your cousin’s house getting hit last August. Would that have been the tornado that hit the Fenton Area on the 24th? If so, I was in it with my son at the High School at Lake Fenton. It was his 13th birthday and we were getting ready to shoot video for the high school football game, what a night. Glad your cousins are all ok now.
I know how you feel when you try to fit almost a whole week into two days. I wish you luck and enjoy yourself.
I started a new project so I know how you feel.
It does sound like a great weekend!
Looking forward to hearing about your Gander Mountain excursion and meeting up with Mike Adams.
That is positive news about your cousin’s house warming party. Bet they are glad the experience of having to rebuild is in the past.
Really looking forward to seeing what you will find on the trail camera. My cameras have started having some problems. Have to see if it is simply battery power that is the difficulty or something more serious.
