A Whole New Hunting Mind
Recently I've been reading Daniel Pinks', A Whole New Mind, and it's quite intriguing.  It came as recommended reading from my boss at work, and I was intrigued by the concept of the book right from the start. Basically, the idea behind the book is that most of us - from a young age - are instructed to pursue left-brained careers - computer programming and accounting to name a few - when, actu...
SOTV: ‘09 Turkey Hunts
Last year, Jeff and I were both successful in our turkey hunting pursuits - Jeff shot a nice jake, and I shot my first bird - a jake - as well.  And we were lucky enough to capture both of those hunts on film too. I love sharing these videos with all of you, and I love them for selfish reasons as well.  It's just great to, not only be able to re-live the moment in your mind, but also to be ab...
Sponsor On-Board
It's been one heck of a month here at SimplyOutdoors, and it just keeps getting better.  I'm very proud and pleased to announce that we have our first sponsor - Cottage Craft Works. Cottage Craft Works make all kinds of unique things - hand-made furniture, fishing lures, custom gun stocks, toys and, of course, my personal favorite, hunting calls.  They make box calls, slate calls, owl hoots, ...
Walks: Getting Outside Anyway We Can
Sure, a lot of the sidewalks are a muddy mess, and a few of them are quite treacherous - ice-covered and very slick from the snow that has melted during the day and then re-froze at night.  But that hasn't kept the wife, Abby, or myself from enjoying a walk the last couple evenings. It's interesting this time of the year as well.  On one end it's great to see the snow disappearing and the sta...
Michigan’s Changing of the Seasons
I walked out the back door yesterday afternoon - to take out the trash - and I was promptly met by spring.  This weekend the weather has been unbelievable, especially considering that we were ice fishing just last weekend; we hit the 50 degree mark yesterday, and we're supposed to be in the high 40's, low 50's all week this week.  So much for ice fishing, I guess. What I experienced this week...

Thank You to All of our Veterans

Posted By: Arthur on November 11, 2009 in Ramblings - Comments: 2 Comments »

veteransday_wktvOn this day – Veterans Day 2009 – SimplyOutdoors would like to say thank you to all of our veterans, past and present.  Without your service and sacrifice we would not be able to enjoy any of the activities that we are free to do.  And without your commitment to freedom, we would not have such a great country to enjoy.

We say a big Thank You to all of our veterans.  May God bless you all.

And please remember that Veterans Day isn’t only about those who have already served, or those who have perished while protecting the great freedoms we enjoy in this country, it is also to remember the ones who are on the front lines at this very moment; sacrificing time with their family and friends, and putting aside their favorite hobbies, etc. so that all of us may be able to enjoy ours.
