Figured why not just bump this to present. Found three yesterday, but really had to work for them. One was prime, one was just starting to dry on the ends, the last was already woody. After looking at last years dates, would assume there will be at least 2 to 3 more weeks to go. The ground is getting pretty dry though; after this summer, seems kind of funny wishing for a little more rain........

Also, Don, sorry about someone not getting back to you right away winkgrin Yes, i am sure there are hens up yonder!

Drove down from Duluth yesterday and spent 6 hours looking for hens in the north metro. Found one that was was spored out and rotting. It was very dry. Hopefully this weeks rain will help. Heading to central mn weekend to visit parents and son at college so I hope to spend a few hours in woods.

Went out for a couple hours yesterday and found quite a few hens that were prime along with a couple rotten/spored out ones. My friend found a nice haul of chickens growing on an oak tree and we also found 5 bears head tooth. I had never harvested any of these mushrooms before but it was really fun. All three varieties were delicious and I will be heading back into the woods soon!!

Spent a bit of time this weekend and found it tough...Got one beauty chicken and found a couple dried up small hens. I have my eye on a hen that is slowly developing as well. Found it Friday as just a tight mass, yesterday it was just starting to leaf...couple more days..

Got out this morning for an hour and picked up 5 nice hens and saw another big rotten one. This is my first year hunting mushrooms in the fall and I am hooked for life. I made a nice batch of cream of mushroom soup with hens, chickens, and morels I had stashed in the freezer and boy was that good.

    • got this tackled today took about 3 hours to get both sides done. Didnt even get to use a torch....   Thought I was golden with just jacking it up and I could get to everything but no luck. Had to remove the entire axle hub and brake assembly to get to what I needed. Was a pain but still better then taking off the entire pivot arm.    Axle bearings were already greased and in great shape thankfully. Got both leaf springs installed and its ready for the road again.   Probably going to have my electric brakes checked, I am not touching anything with the brake drums. Based on what I saw it doesn't look like my electric brakes have been working anyway. Brakes are nice to have if its slippery out
    • By The way that didn't work either!! Screw it I'll just use the cellular. 
    • It’s done automatically.  You might need an actual person to clear that log in stuff up.   Trash your laptop history if you haven’t tried that already.
    • 😂 yea pretty amazing how b o o b i e s gets flagged, but they can't respond or tell me why I  can't get logged in here on my laptop but I can on my cellular  😪
    • I grilled some brats yesterday, maybe next weekend will the next round...  
    • You got word censored cuz you said        B o o b ies….. haha.   Yeah, no… grilling is on hiatus for a bit.
    • Chicken mine,  melded in Mccormick poultry seasoning for 24 hours.  Grill will get a break till the frigid temps go away!
    • we had some nice weather yesterday and this conundrum was driving me crazy  so I drove up to the house to take another look. I got a bunch of goodies via ups yesterday (cables,  winch ratchet parts, handles, leaf springs etc).   I wanted to make sure the new leaf springs I got fit. I got everything laid out and ready to go. Will be busy this weekend with kids stuff and too cold to fish anyway, but I will try to get back up there again next weekend and get it done. I don't think it will be bad once I get it lifted up.    For anyone in the google verse, the leaf springs are 4 leafs and measure 25 1/4" eye  to eye per Yetti. I didnt want to pay their markup so just got something else comparable rated for the same weight.   I am a first time wheel house owner, this is all new to me. My house didn't come with any handles for the rear cables? I was told this week by someone in the industry that cordless drills do not have enough brake to lower it slow enough and it can damage the cables and the ratchets in the winches.  I put on a handle last night and it is 100% better than using a drill, unfortatenly I found out the hard way lol and will only use the ICNutz to raise the house now.
