Good morning. We should sticky this thread so I have somewhere to go on nights like this. Seems like they are getting more frequent. Maybe it s because I'm retired now and don't have to get my sleep to stay awake all day at work.
just I did this even when working,always a bit too high strung I guess. Many times my mind wakes me so i get up and work or tman.

I'm on my third cup of coffee and looking over the cable restraint training site. I'm going to get my cert and learn to use restraints and snares here in PA.
Good morning brothers and sisters.
I'm calling it a blessing that I sleep fairly well, in bed before 10:00 and up around 4:30.

Keep your boots dry and your powder too.
I remember when a fur check was reality.....now I'm just trapping for the love of it.
Best Regards,
JT

Still I'd like to try setting some for beaver and I know some pretty good spots for canine sets. It will keep me busy for awhile, plus I've started on a dozen weasel boxes as I've never trapped them before either.

Indeed, and as arthritis sets in more and more, my back and pelvis right now but my hands are pretty stiff too, it's becoming difficult to stay asleep.
I definitely count my blessings as such.
That CBD oil seems to take the razor edge off for me. Physical therapist recommended I try it because I refuse to take opiates.
I hope you folks find some relief. Swing shift and the broken sleep almost killed me.

i have 10 new beaver sets to check this mornin,feel a little giddy-hope that never goes that away. I own one 330 Conibear at this point so I'll definitely have to gear up, at least add some to the arsenal. Snares seemed a good option to me. In any case I get giddy when I find sign, no matter what it is, and especially when I hear my chains rattling out on the line. Makes me feel like I'm 12 again (not the body of course)
