Hello All,
New here, Got a link given to me by Tas over on the Foods of the World Site when he and I were talking about folks on Facebook and he put the link to here for me to check out...
I'm from the Harrisburg area of PA, Lived in PA all my life, grew up in a little town north of Harrisburg along the Mighty Susquehanna River and grew up basically as a Country Boy stuck in a small town...spent many summers on my 1 Aunt and 1 Uncle's Farms helping and Learning about growing plants and animals to eat and basically tagging along before I was old enough to hunt with my Dad and 3 older brothers... I'm a nut when it comes to the Outdoors! Always wanting to be there and NOT at work, long for days when I can just be in the woods or along a creek or sitting by a lake hunting or fishing or maybe gathering wild fruits and berries...
I do many things in Life outside of work, make homemade soda, beer, wine, jellies, candy, grow veggies in a garden in the back yard and on a Buddy's farm to make salsas and for other ways of eating....
I always have to learn more and more each day, always looking for things to learn something of that i didn't know anything about...sometimes folks refer to me as a "Know it all" for I have many things in my brain that I know about that most would never seek to know about or understand!
I'm a Firm Believer that each and every law abiding citizen of the United States has a GOD GIVEN Right to have and to own firearms or other weapons to use to take wild animals for home use and also to defends ones property and loved ones!
I'm a hunter of many things and a Trapper of anything legal to be trapped and a fisherman for trout, pan fish(Mostly crappy, perch and punkinseeds) Walleye and catfish and will defend those things till my dieing day! I'm not a sportsman but a Conservationist, I have an understanding that we need to manage the wildlife so that we have more for future generations and that disease never wipes out a population..I do not consider hunting, trapping and fishing as Sports, I consider them to be "a Way of Life" there is no sport in it for me, it is a time to go out and hunt, fish or trap and to use what I take to eat at home and help to defray the cost of the meats from the grocery stores, I do not use every thing that is sold to make hunting or fishing easy and feel that buying everything that is sold to hunt, fish or trap is pretty much making it a sport and not a way of life and ends up making the meat or fur from the animals and fish cost more then it would in a grocery store! Some think that a person like myself who considers hunting, fishing and trapping as a way of life, never has any fun in taking part in hunting trapping or fishing, that is Far from the Truth, I enjoy myself every day I'm out, see more then the normal person would see and it clenses my soul and regnerates my life's batteries!
I will be on here from time to time, I spend most of my time on a PA Hunting Site and the Foods of the World Site.....
Happy to be given the link to here by Tas and look forward to reading and learning more about everyone and helping where I can and to maybe learn more then I already know!
