God, it’s nice to get lucky once in a while – coming in on Wednesday night for my first duck hunting of the year and getting to the Delta right when the weather is turning cold and the wind is turning out of the north. Hopefully I’ll have some ducks, as I’m bringing my future father-in-law and future brother-in-law down from North Carolina and they’ve never been duck hunting before. Damned kneebooters.

yea i'm glad to hear about the weather to. i'llbe heading down to Rosedale on friday. but, until then i'm going to stay up here in Pulaski and shoot their butts off.

Didn't know there were any ducks up here worth shooting. We lease land in Aylett which has a slough off the Mattaponni, and I've been to the WMA on the Chickahominy, but I just get too damned frustrated sitting out for hours and only seeing a dozen ducks or so. I think all we've killed all year (6 of us) are about a dozen woodies, 2 mallards and a black duck.

the cottonwoods thats where its at if you n rosedale... also the double quick in rosedale sales more ice cold bud and fried chicken than the entire state of virgina

dont know where your looking for weather info...but its 65 degree's and supposed to be warm for the next 16 days with highs close to 60 most days and a couple of days in the high 40's...the weather did turn warm but come on down its better to be looking at empty skies than working.

Weather.com was showing 49/26 for Friday with the wind out of the NW at 14mph, and 53/36 for Saturday with the wind turning out of the south.

I was always partial to the fried chicken at the Double Quick in Lexington. But the BP station at Cary and Meadow in Richmond (aka the Murder Mart) has some mighty fine bird, too.

East Lexington "Store" (on the left side of the bridge heading into town) or Red Front Grocery were the ticket in my day - used to stock up on Wiedemans there. That may be before your time though.

I sure hope it cools off some for the weekend were due some colder weather its been feeling like fishing weather out there

Can't wait to get after em. I'll be there in the morning with that North wind to my back.

the chicken on a stick is the best chicken i have ever ate , as for the cold buds thats a big 10 4 . but i was wondering if they were still making tamales at the white front .

the ducks are really up here but mostly on the new river. we get so many black ducks we have to shoo them off. but, the geese are really plentiful .

The guy that owned the white front died. I'm not sure if they are open still or not.

I was referring to the Double Quick in Lexington, MS, but I know Jim and East Lex on the Maury quite well - got all my beer and porn from him. Red Front was closed by the time I got to campus; the building was still there (it's a music shop last I saw), but White Front on Main was still open (closed now and is some kind of health food shop). Could get kegs of Olympia at White Front for $29.

When were you in Lexington?
