Abby’s first trip to the Zoo
With summer winding down, and hunting season close to kicking into full gear, the wife and I really wanted to do one last - purely for Abby - activity.   Then, one night while reading one of her favorite books, I instantly knew where we were heading - the zoo. Abby loves to read books involving animals, and she loves to name the animals as we read through the books.  She loves all the animal...
Moving stands, checking cams: No outfitter needed!
When I'm watching outdoor television, there is nothing that gets under my skin more than hearing the person in front of the camera say something like this: "Well......we're on our way to Battle Creek Outfitters to hunt for a few days. Jim, of BC Outfitters, has been watching a few bucks during the year, so hopefully we'll have a chance at one of them in the next few days. We're gonna get a sh...
The Aftermath
It rained on July 4th. And while the rain was a welcome relief to the retreating soldiers, as well as the victorious ones, it was not welcomed by the local residents of the little Pennsylvania town.  It came down in sheets, soaking the unburied bodies still on the field - some with hands folded, and others with clenched fists; it inhibited the Army of Northern Virginia's retreat across the Pot...
Nature: Life in Stereo
As the beginning notes of Round Here made contact with my auricles, I was in heaven; I had forgotten how incredible my Bose earphones were.  I could hear every instrument in the song - the chords on the guitar; the intricate timing of the cymbals and snare; the keyboard quietly playing in the background.  It was as if I was experiencing the song for the first time, though I had heard it many tim...
First Show
The SimplyOutdoors' crew had a great time over the weekend - we got to converse with quite a few local Michigan residents, and we had a great time doing so.  It's always fun sharing stories with local hunters - and it was even fun talking with the non-hunters. We were definitely happy to see the weather hold out for us, too.  There was a chance of thunderstorms throughout the entire day, but,...

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.
