OK, ya gotta put this into perspective. Summer and winter can require a mind set. In summer ya sweat and drip and get salt in yer eyes and overheat. Damn its hot ya say and start on in a rant and ..... POOF! Ya recall, its summer, its sposed to be hot! Then its OK.
Winters the same. Yer spilling powder and cut yerself with yer patch knife and drop 13 caps trying to load (or spill 48 grns trying to prime) and then POOF! Ya shoot. Ya see/smell sulpher smoke and it dawns on ya....its winter its sposed to be cold! Then yer OK, you shoot as planned and head home to yer period correct thera-flu and a nice nip of whiskey!
Spring in fall er for old folks, its not too hot or too cold, just too short.
I will admit I no longer anticipate getting up at 3:30 AM to blow up my raft, load my decoys, drive to the lake, set my decoys and paddle around and make a blind like I once did. Damn that was fun in the late teens and early twenties! The mostest fun was picking the decoys up one night at sunset in a canoe and me and the boss each grabbed our guns and fired leaning hard right at a few mallards. Its exciting when ya get in the drink with two pair of pants, two wool shirt's and a coat with 4 boxes of 20 GA in yer pockets! Then ya know about cold, and Jesus, and not ever hunting in a canoe again. Its quite clear then.
Brrr
