If you’d like to be on or off this Outdoors/Rural/wildlife/hunting/hiking/backpacking/National Parks/animals list please FR mail me. And ping me is you see articles of interest.

One of my favorite magazines, along with Fur-Fish-Game which dates to the turn of the last century. Unfortunately neither have articles on the sites.

I often buy Fur-Fish-Game. Reading it has made me want to try my hand at trapping someday. I have sme conibears but I don’t know enough to start trapping.

In 1998, I got that big book, “Country Living, the Encyclopedia of Country Living” and that’s enough for me. I’m not going to be in the woods and use tools to clear the forest, and catch animals. Young people could do that (but I still wouldn’t if I were young as I’ve never had a large body and lots of strength). I’m a mental working person, so I’ll give directions while the rest follow them - that’s the ticket.

I was just wondering what kind of a pioneer would I be...An Annie Oakley, a Miss Kitty or Mrs. Adam Cartwright???
I'm diverse so I'd say Mrs. Adam Cartwright...that likes to fish, hunt, ride and shoot....and would adore Hop Sing to do the cookin'


watch out talking like that.. you'll end up with a dozen marriage proposals. :)

My son has had several articles published in Fur-Fish-Game.

I had credits for the photos.

Thanks, I’m always short of time and sources for outdoor articles.
