Had a great opportunity to take my father and two cousins hunting this past saturday. Here's a picture from the morning. Word on the street is that the northern ducks are starting to arrive, so stay tuned for next weeks post.

Great trip to North Dakota with Derek "the pack mule" Jones and Merle "the chubby southerner" Stein. Limits of ducks every day, more duck that we could comfortably eat, and great stories to tell. Now its back to working too hard for WI ducks.

Ahh, fall is finally here! I am loving this 60 degree day! Ryan left today for North Dakota with his brother and a friend to duck hunt for the next week. I am hoping that he will come home with lots of ducks. Ryan has been busy with work, but has managed to squeeze in quite a few hunting trips. This cooler fall weather should bring better hunting!

I have been busy at school (what's new!). I have a great bunch of kids this year...so eager to learn. I am coaching 7th and 8th grade girls volleyball again. We have had an up and down season...the girls have improved sooooooooo much from last year, but we still can't pull off many wins. We have won just one game (so far). We have a game Thursday and a tournament next week. The girls really want to win!

We continue to work on the house. Ryan is busy finishing off the basement. It is going to be a great space for us when he is done! We have been painting and fixing the yard. Since hunting started we haven't gone away, but are enjoying time in town with family and friends.

That's all from the Jones family. God's blessings to you!
