I knew this would happen..... Bad

 As it turns out Wednesday was going to be my best day to hunt. So I made the appropriate calls and headed out in the AM with thoughts of heavy clouds, temps in the 20's, and snow squalls in the near future, dancing in my head. I set up a good snow spread with 2 dozen sleeper shells and around that many full bodies, along with my snow blind and I was set. 
All I had to do now was wait..... and wait.... and...
After the sun came up and was moving into mid morning this happened.
With that glowing ball in the sky I knew it would be an all day sit... so I took a nap. When I woke up I had some decoys to pick up that the gusts had blown over. I started looking around and began to worry I wasn't going to be able to stay. When I finally threw in the towel my beautiful snow covered field looked like this. 
I looked like a white turd in a field, so I packed it in and headed North.
 
On the way home I realized that this was my first skunk of the year... or was it?🤔
Either way it was Bad, but I didn't have to clean a goose....  
I didn't take this pic yesterday, I just really like it, it is the same field though.
