 For many deer hunters, late August is the time to plant fall and winter crops. Hopefully by now, the fields have been prepared and are ready to receive whatever seed one has decided to sow. The trick now is to simply wait until a good rain is predicted. (Which is rare in many places) The idea is to plant just before the rain so that the seed will have a better chance of taking root.  It truly is amazing how much difference a season of hunting can be if there are fields sown with some of the deer’s favorite grasses.

Do you know enough to worry?

Let’s say I give you an apple seed.  It’s a seed from a Washington Red Delicious. You love and have eaten bushels of them.  You’ve even picked them.  You know a tree-ripened apple from one picked early and sprayed to ripen.  You make your own apple pies.  You know just about everything there is to know about apples…

The Gentle Giant comes to Spindale and...A Sell Out Crowd Welcomes Him!

You don’t come to a Don Williams concert to hear him. You come to cuddle and absorb the smooth baritone singing of a man who is now known and loved throughout the world. He gives and shares of himself so that you feel a kinship to this great man of our times.

Outdoor Truths
Since Spring I have wanted to spend a night on the river; camping and fishing. I have a friend who owns the perfect place. It is secluded and this part of the river is rarely fished.
