Title: Let us never forget who we are
Post by: castie2504 on September 09, 2015, 11:28:17 PM: Ladies, gentleman;

This is the time of year we all live for. The days are getting shorter, colder and our passion takes over our lives. The call of the wild is in our blood, irresistible; and the temptation of the hunt is almost too much to bear. We are women and men of blessed, fortunate and grateful to be stewards and ambassadors of our chosen prey. The wide open range is our calling; We are the few chosen to continue this lifestyle into the future.

But in these times we must remember that we are part of the greatest country on Earth. Let us remember our brothers and sisters who have lost their lives in defence of this great nation and those who were lost in New York little more than a decade ago. Let us rejoice at the intestinal fortitude that we as Americans are known for; the rights our forefathers sacrificed so much for. We are a nation born of determination and grit; let us never forget who we are and where we came from.

I wish everyone a safe and successful hunt. And please if you may, thank that serviceman or woman nearest to you or that you may see with the veteran cap on their head. For if not for them we may not be able to live the life we live or chase the passion that fuels us.

GOD BLESS THE USA

That's is exactly why I were my sons USS ROOSEVELT tee shirt under my camoes and under my dirt bikeing attire , it is because of the service my son and all othes that we have these great opportunities in our country , never ever take it for granted, like I almost did because of some silly fire threats, I just wish the state would quit seeing it as revenue and quit turning it into a buisness :twocents:, last I checked the critters I talked to didn't ever bring up cost of living raises at all, but they did bring up the high cost of travel, because of the fires. :chuckle:

The season that captivates us, enchants us, lures us in with the promise of hope. The obsession that inspires us dominates our existence. Only with time and dedication will the outcome be certain. Rugged, determined outdoorsmen and women beckon and itch for the adventure...

That time of year is now, please be safe, have fun and be thankful for this year's opportunity to do what you love.

Make this year your greatest adventure.
