Dan's Ramblings

Green green green don’t you love it, all except the mowing, by the way we mow every Wednesday if you can help that would be great, The trail system for archery can use some pruning year round feel free to help out with that to.

The Wild Game Feed went very good lots of food from Bear to Frog, my hats off to all the chefs. The rabbit was my favorite. If you think about it we have two meals for our members each year the wild game feed and the fish fry, it would cost more than the $45.00 membership for a couple to go out to eat trice, hmmm kinda like the membership is free hmmmm.

Our clean up weekend was less than a success, we had 10 members show up Saturday and 1 show up Sunday, about 3% turn out and that’s better than the previous year, All you members need to relies this is OUR club we all need to help out and make it the best club there is. I am very proud of this club and I know if each member helped out for only four hours each year we would never be in need of help. Just a thought.

Morrels are poppen and some other tasty treats like asparegrass, and various fungi’s. Good Eats, I always cookem the same way cook off some of the water then I fry’em in butter and a little garlic salt, I’m getting hungry.

The front porch is done and the roof has been shingled. If you have any decor items like mounts, aide rugs or pictures that fit our outdoors look give me a call we need some fitting items.

The best thing any outdoorsmen can do is take a kid with them.

How come a dog listens and works great when its just you and him, but when you gat a friend with you then they act like they have know idea what’s going on?

That’s it for now, enjoy life to the fullest, aim small hit small.
