Yesterday I wanted to invade another world. I meticulously planned it out (that means I finally found my go pro camera) and gathered my ice fishing stuff together for the invasion. I needed drilling equipment (ice auger) to penetrate the barrier to the underworld. I needed a stick(I cut a thick willow stick), line (veryContinue reading “Invasive Maneuvers”

Life is Like a Bowl of Oatmeal?
life is like that you know. Add nothing and it’s plain. Stir too much and it’s mush. Let it set too long and you can patch pot holes in the road because it’s character is set in it’s ways. How can one have a Gourmet oatmeal? I’m glad you asked. I took pictures. The grandkidsContinue reading “Life is Like a Bowl of Oatmeal?”
Tell Me a Good Story
Life has changed, I retired and moved from a somewhat remote area in Wisconsin to a much more remote area of Minnesota. Very little television or news is allowed to frame our lives. There is no sense in being goaded to be scared or mad as plenty of good news is out there. Plenty ofContinue reading “Tell Me a Good Story”
I Miss You Mom, But Still Telling On You.
Moms gardens were her passion. Dad always figured it might be her undoing and that in itself has provided stories. They had carved a place out of the woods for retirement to live happily ever after. For the most part it worked, but now it’s after. Moms gardens in the woods needed protection, fences sortContinue reading “I Miss You Mom, But Still Telling On You.”
Stalking Beaver
My Inspiration: Brother Craig wrote about the Beaver. So relevant on many levels for today…Check out his poem here Thanks Craig, you write so well!

(insert picture of actual barn) A big yard light gave off enough light through the top of the flopped open barn door to see enough, and enough dark to sleep. Maybe. The 12Continue reading “Smokey Shadow”

Old Seasonings Die Hard
Our brains are truly wonderful. They constantly gather information, categorize it under hundreds of headings and constantly crosscheck it as relevant or irrelevant even while simple conversations are going on. I have been looking into making my own venison jerky for years, I guess, without even knowing it. When my brother (who makes great jerky)Continue reading “Old Seasonings Die Hard”
Wilderness Food Planning for the unorganized (like I should talk)
I was in the grocery store for a couple hours (seemed like) with a cart load of camping food and my cart disappeared. It was just gone. I found it two isles over being pushed by a very small elderly women with a friend pushing a similar cart. They were shopping together. When I askedContinue reading “Wilderness Food Planning for the unorganized (like I should talk)”
A Distracted Mind
I get distracted easily. Well I really don’t, but my mind wanders into every nook and cranny around. Once in awhile my mind goes off on an imaginary journey if I don’t keep it on a short leash. Focus Gary, focus! I began making too many mistakes at work so someone took it upon themContinue reading “A Distracted Mind”
