Look out Texas Wildlife...

Chris Baugher is coming for you!  If you don't really care about hunting or you think hunting is gross, skip to the next paragraph.  If it doesn't matter to you, this was my Thursday.  Yesterday, I went up to my lease to get some stuff ready for deer season.  I put up a couple deer feeders and hung a camera so I can see the monsters that are roaming my land while they are still walking around.  Hopefully that will change come deer season.  As in, they won't be walking around anymore because they will be riding in the back of my truck back to Houston.  As in, we will be eating them for dinner.  As in, I will be lucky enough to shoot one or more.  Ya got it?  I really hope that I get some pictures of some hogs and some turkeys on there too.  If I do see some hogs there might be a Pig Roast at the Baugher's.  We will just have to wait and see.  After I got the stuff ready for the deer, I went over to the cabin and fished a little bit at the lake.  Two bass later, it was time to head back into town.  Hunting is a lot different in Texas.  There isn't really "open" woods in East Texas.  My lease is pretty much exactly what you would think Texas is.  Flat and thick with gas pipelines running through it.  Most everyone hunts out of box blinds of tripod stands.  I'm pretty lucky though because my part of the lease has a tons of trees for climbing and a sweet opening that should be perfect for bowhunting.  I am pumped...

So I guess the rumor is that football is back.  Awesome.  I said it before so don't be all surprised when the Texans go to the playoffs this year.  I'm not saying Super Bowl, I'm saying playoffs.  Just like I said that Michigan will win a National Championship with Rich Rod and the Orioles will, well, I never really said anything about them.  Not that dumb.  Plus, I promised myself that I wouldn't complain about them anymore so, how bout this tropical storm huh?  Anyway, the Texans have a new Defense with "Squinchy Face" Wade Phillips running the show (Shout out to Carly.  She came up with Squinchy Face.  Really, check it out.  He always looks like he is eating a lemon)  and they just got a corner and a safety.  You'll see.  All the Texans need to do is get better on D.  The offense is good.  Check it out for yourself...


That's right, I have his jersey...  I'm not really sure why I never really got into the skins or ravens.  It was always about baseball for me.  Don't get me wrong, I want the redskins ad ravens to be good.  It must be because I've been to a bunch of Texans games and I never went to a football game growin up.  Being so close to Reliant has allowed me to get to a bunch of games and really like the Texans.  And I'm not a bandwagon fan because they have never won ANYTHING.  Usually, they don't win as many games as they lose during the year.  This year is different though, this is the year. 

I am starting to get bored with summer.  It's hot and I'm running out of things to do.  We don't have a pool and every time I go outside I get sunburned, sweaty and tired.  Fish don't bite in the summer and you can't hunt.  I took Cam for a walk a couple of days ago at 9:00 in the morning and after 5 minutes he was pulling me back to the house because he couldn't do it anymore.  Being outside is torture...
