Trellis Outdoors: Long Time No Blog
http://tomelliston.blogspot.com/2009/10/long-time-no-blog.html
Outdoor adventures and my climb through life. Tuesday, October 27, 2009. Long Time No Blog. I put a Tasco scope on the gun today and I hope I have no issues sighting it in in the next few days. I think it is a pretty good deal, 600 bucks a month for a house and primo hunting property! October 28, 2009 at 5:51 AM. Where is this apartment? And do you need a roommate? I guess my wife probably wouldnt appreciate me moving out, but that sounds like a killer place you are going to be moving into. Deer Number T...

Outdoor adventures and my climb through life. Wednesday, April 29, 2009. Fish Kill on the Shenandoah River. I was just taking a break from writing a research paper and happened to stop by the Virginia Department of Game and Inland Fisheries. Website. I noticed a news release from yesterday that discussed the fish kills that have plagued the river for the past few years. I live about 5 minutes from the river and have fished it my whole life, so this article was of particular interest to me. I am going to ...

Outdoor adventures and my climb through life. Sunday, April 18, 2010. It's Been A Long Time. The bird came in gobbling the whole way and put on a show for us. It was his lucky day, as neither one of us was looking to kill a young bird. I graduate academy in a week and a half and hope to get back into my normal schedule. The past few months I have spent all my time typing notes, so hopefully I'll get back to typing on my blog! April 19, 2010 at 1:21 PM. April 27, 2010 at 12:27 PM. Virginia, United States.

Trellis Outdoors: Muzzleloader Buck
http://tomelliston.blogspot.com/2009/11/muzzleloader-buck.html
Outdoor adventures and my climb through life. Wednesday, November 4, 2009. I finally picked a tree that was about 75 yards from a bedding area that was just across the property line. I climbed up about 15 feet and got situated. It could not have been more than 30 minutes before a herd of 5 deer came into view, feeding on acorns. I watched them for about 45 minutes before another hunter came by and scared them away. November 4, 2009 at 8:30 PM. November 5, 2009 at 4:28 AM. November 12, 2009 at 6:28 AM.

Outdoor adventures and my climb through life. Sunday, June 14, 2009. No Outdoor Adventures and LYME DISEASE! Once again, I failed to spend any time in the outdoors this weekend. Stuff just keeps coming up in my schedule and I can't find any time to go fishing or anything else outdoors related. I cut a bunch of grass this weekend and did some other odds and ends, but that was as close to outside as I got. Sunday, June 7, 2009. A Small Fishing Trip. While catching sunfish to use as catfish bait, I found a ...

Outdoor adventures and my climb through life. Monday, August 31, 2009. 5 Days Until Deer Season 2009/2010. I spent today taking care of all the chores that had piled up while I was away on my cruise. After getting the "real life" chores taken care of this morning, I went to Gander Mountain to buy the last few items I needed for my bow. I only have 5 days until the opener here in Virginia, so I want to make sure I am 100% ready! I was also unable to find the broadhead washers that I wanted. The weather is...

Trellis Outdoors: Deer Number Two Down!!!
http://tomelliston.blogspot.com/2009/10/deer-number-two-down.html
Outdoor adventures and my climb through life. Thursday, October 8, 2009. Deer Number Two Down! Well, I finally managed to get a real deer hunt in this evening. Since I started working 12 hour long night shifts, I haven't had a lot of time or energy to hunt. I did hunt a few mornings after work, but I never stayed in the stand for more than an hour or two for fear of falling asleep and falling out! This was my first hunt of the year in my home county, so I was glad that I managed to knock one down. I have...

Trellis Outdoors: September 2009

Outdoor adventures and my climb through life. Monday, September 28, 2009. I feel like I haven't blogged in forever. Truthfully I haven't had much that was outdoor related to blog about. This is because I finally started my new job as a corrections officer. I am finally working a set shift and getting into the swing of things, so I hope to start blogging more. Deer season sure has snuck up on me this year even though I hunted a few times during the early season. I guess having a job does that to ya! There...
