Travel Complete

The final leg of our travels went smoothly and we made it into Lily, SD around 4:30pm. Upon our arrival, we got into the house, dropped the boat in the garage and headed out to scout the last 2+ hours for a good duck spot or two to get us started tomorrow morning. Given our abbreviated scouting time available tonight, we stayed close to the house and checked out some spots that we knew were open to the public. We found 2 large ponds that look promising. The 1st was holding hundreds of geese (Snow, Canada, and Speck) as well as a fair amount of ducks mixed in with them. We were confident that we could have a successful hunt there in the morning, but kept on with our scouting to try to find another spot for Saturday. About 15 minutes later, we came across another large pond North of Lily near Bristol that was not only holding ducks, but had a pocket of a dozen or more pintails plus several dozen Mallards - that will be our spot tomorrow. We are all REALLY tired and looking forward to some sleep.  All 3 dogs got a head start on us: Winnie is on my bed, Mag is on her dog bed, and Jax was quick to snag the couch...
