We had our first run of the season today. Brad and Jay brought Maggie, Ernie, Buster and Patch along with myself and Chip and we headed down to Hi Pointe which is part of the Pea Ridge Conservation Area. It was a beautiful day to hunt. We got down to the hunting area and headed east from the first parking lot. The dogs were working well together. They had spread out to cover the back side of the lake dam and continued to work that way most of the day. As we were walking through the southeast portion of the CA, we noticed the Conservation Department had done a controlled burn in the area last year. The area was growing back nicely, but we were covered in soot. We didn't see any rabbits until we were almost back to the truck after working the entire south side of the CA. I actually nearly stepped on the rabbit before he jumped. Chip, Maggie and Ernie were immediately on the scent and tracking nicely. Buster and Patch soon joined in the hunt and all 5 dogs were baying and chasing. We stopped and ate while they worked the rabbit, but the rabbit was smarter that the 5 dogs and got away. It wasn't to much longer after that and Brad stepped on one (possibly the same rabbit) and the 5 dogs were off again. But once again the rabbit out smarted the dogs and got away. Those were the only two rabbits we saw. The dogs didn't even pick up on any other trails. All-in-all it was a good day. Not bad for the first time out in the season.TEMP: Near 35° rising to around 50°
TIME: 9:00 AM - 2:30 PM
CONDITIONS: Most everything was frozen when we started out but the top 1/2" started to thaw throughout the day. It went from sunny to overcast as a front moved through just after noon.

Over the years, the price of Rolex Submariner replica watches has creeped up to rather ambitious levels. Rolex still sells them in large quantities. The good news is that unlike many luxury watches, Rolex timepieces tend to hold value very well, and that is especially the case with the rolex replica sale Submariner. While you probably aren't going to get rich buying one, you will likely be able to resell it for a price close to what you paid for it. That is good news for people who like to upgrade or switch watches every few years, or if you are in a financial pinch. As I said, the Rolex swiss replica watches Submariner Date and No Date models have two different prices attached to them. The difference in price has to do with the date complication and replica watches uk really depends on what you like. Though the roughly $1,000 difference is appreciable. Some replica watches people hate the "cyclops" magnifier on the dial and love the clean look of a simple dial. Others feel that it is only a real rolex replica sale with the date window and crystal bubble.
