Never Give Up!
#9
I about got peppered with bird shot once as a kid. I was fishing a beaver-pond when a bunch of teenage hunters let loose with a volley that ripped through all around me but luckily didn't hit me at all.

I let loose with a yell, and they scattered out of there at about 90 miles an hour. They didn't even wait to see if I was hurt. Plus there were NO birds on the pond at the time. Dumb kids!

Since then, during the various hunting seasons, I always wear orange, if I am out in the hills, no matter what I am doing.

I haven't actually hunted in probably 10 years, but I still hike a lot and fish during the fall. You just have to remember that "hunter's orange" is for EVERYONE in the outdoors, not just hunters.

I have this addiction to high mountain lakes and small streams, and I just can't kick the habit. The weather is too nice ... it is calling me again! I have to go back out before it snows!
