Boys, I am here to tell you that Marty really knows how to show a girl a good time!!! Woke up about 4:30 this am...proceeded to get decoys, blinds, guns, etc loaded and took off (about 2 miles as the duck flies from home). He took me to set up in a cornfield where he saw literally thousands of mallards yesterday. I set up the layout blinds while he toted stuff across the field. Set up our decoys-waited for what seemed like a long time (while watching a beautiful sunrise!). Geese started flying first, then the sky exploded with ducks! We ended up with seven mallards today. We returned home, unloaded the truck and trailer, and cleaned our birds. Had some running to do, then came home and Marty cooked mallard breasts (rare to medium rare)-seared on the charcoal grill. I chopped a salad and baked a potato. Yum Yum!!! Finally set down to rest with a glass of Zin. What a glorious day!!!!!
