Sorry to hear about your brothers-in-law Chief. Don't know what else to say really. Cancer sucks!

thanks jm,

It's about sengin time in Tennessee. Beautiful weather here today comfortable temps and low humidity. Can't get to excited though, suppose to be hot and humid for pretty much all of early season ginseng, ughh. Looks to be about like the start of last season as far as temps. I'll have to start out with some short hunts I believe. I went down to the river today for a few hours, and found a little gold. I seemed to run across more sporting goods than gold today, and I didn't even have to go to Dick's, lol.
