If it's just a little cold, then getting out in the woods would likely make him feel better.  With the weather like it is, getting fresh air and sunshine is almost sure to help and sure wouldn't hurt. :twocents:
The problem is that your not getting much of fresh air right now anywhere in the state pretty much.   :chuckle:

Well at least you'd get some sunshine..........  ;)   Well, that is unless the smoke is blocking out the sun too........ :yike:

Fever and/or sore throat would keep me home. A sore throat makes everything miserable.

I like sweating out a cold anyway. :twocents:

I would rather be miserable out in the woods than be miserable at home/work.

If it was just a cold I would go, little sniffle never hurt anyone. However if it was an upper respiratory infection to where I was out of work for 3 days and on antibiotics and coughing I would stay home to get better. Someone posted here that if your coughing and trying to hunt that it wouldn't work because everything would hear you and not to mention if you went with someone you may make their trip to woods miserable to by hacking your head off.
That's just my 2  :twocents:. The way i see it get better so that way you don't end up worse and missing more of the season.
