    Interesting Data Explaining Site Traffic

    I tend to agree with BMWPOWER. And in addition to that I feel corporations share some of the blame, I will explain. My father always worked in some type of manufacturing company until he retired about 20 years ago. Used to people didn't work so much excessive overtime as we do now. I was in a...

    Washing cloths

    (Not only that but a shower to wash off the sweat, bug repellant, helps me to sleep like a brick at night.) Stated by @Bibsoutdoors, I agree. I am fortunate here that I don't need bug repellants. Sweat and dirt washes off pretty easy, bug bug repellants can be hazardous to equipment and hard to...

We went 7 miles out from Cleveland ohio. I thought he was nuts. 7 miles? Good grief that's out in the middle of...

    Yeh I had trouble with packing the fridge. I had to put it behind me in the canoe. We will be taking my brothers boat it's a 19 footer with a 90 horse outboard. I love canoe camping but these large lakes and big boats don't get along. We may travel 10 miles from camp looking for fishing spots...

    That be a big saugeye @silverwolf636. They stock walleye in this local lake. I think we have native sauger, but they claim they are going away. The sauger is smaller. I think they taste the same. These eyes here can be very evasive. I don't understand their behavior patterns I just get lucky...

    I be headed to an island on the famous Dale Hollow Lake, this is where the all tackle world record small mouth was caught. I was very surprised to find out they had primitive camping in several areas of the lake, and only 3 bucks a night! I figured we would have to leave the vehicle somewhere...

    Here in east Tennessee we have more oaks, hickory, and popular trees. We are sort of tropical with mountains. We have ticks. Copper heads, and rattle snakes, but not many mosquitos. We have opossums, wild pigs and turkeys. One night on the way to work i came around a curve in the road, and...
