went out to hang a stand with my 5 year old daughter this morning. there was a nice breeze and it wasn't that hot yet. [img][/img] we went and hung a trail cam. then walked in to the block of woods. we went down a logging road for about 300 yards. i found the "perfect tree". i put on my seat of the pants harness. drilled the pilot holes and put in the screw in steps. it was getting hot quick. i used a pull up rope to bring the stand to me at 25'. i set the chain on, and locked it. real hot now! on the way down the steps it hit me i started puking and shaking on the way down the steps. i got down and layed on the ground for a while. my little one didn't under stand what was wrong with dad. it took a good ten minutes to get my self together. i climbed back up, put on the bow pull up rope, and took out the steps. hot again. layed down for a minute, then packed up the stuff and got the hell out of there. see i told my daughter we could leave the water in the truck. didn't want to carry anymore weight. we could hang one stand, come back for a drink, and hang the next stand. well not today! anyone going out to hang the stands early, be carefull. i got nothing done the rest of the day, had to stay in the air.

Easy to dehydrate, be more careful. You have a real cutie, there, and you want to make sure you'll be there for her. Must have been scary for her. __________________ The government’s view of the economy: If it moves, tax it.
