Starting Point...

When I met my husband back in 1998 I had no idea about hunting or the outdoors. I grew up in a regular suburban home with parents that were non-hunters. I was pretty much ignorant to the great sport of hunting and fishing. Things changed for me the first time I experienced fried back strap with rice and gravy. My husband was so proud to share his love of the sport with me and I was a quick study soon falling in love with his sport as well.

I thoroughly enjoyed the first time he took me down to the family property in Louisiana and we rode the four wheelers exploring the woods. He showed me so many things on that trip that I couldn't believe I had never gotten to experience this growing up. He had so many fun stories of his adventures as a kid hunting with his family. I have to admit I was envious of those stories. I became very excited about our life together and the possibilities that were endless on this beautiful piece of property he shared with me that day.

This blog is here for me to share those experiences as we have been married for 8 years now and have two handsome boys together that now fit into our equation. We hunt, fish and enjoy the outdoors together. I hope as we grow older and our life settles down some we'll have even more stories of our hunting and fishing adventures. This is where I begin to chronicle our stories.

Good luck with the hunting.

I love seeing the ladies getting out into the outdoors. My wife hunts as well even though she was not a hunter growing up. You and her have a lot of similarities.

Looking forward to reading the stories you have to share. Welcome to the outdoor bloggind world.
