Things I love to do

HUNTING-- I have always loved being a tom-boy, and love being outdoors, doing what a lot of women think are 'men sports'.    I love learning and teaching my boys, and girl about guns and hunting, cleaning, and cooking wild game.    Why?  Because, these are basic tools for survival.   You never know when these simple skills could come in handy for your family. 
 ANIMALS--  Animals were placed here by God.  We need to respect them, understand their purposes, and most importantly,    Love them.
 GOLF --Golf is NOT a man's sport.  Golf is an excuse to get outdoors, and challenge yourself, and relax in beautiful settings.   Sharing time with those you love.
 FISHING-  challenging.   A true test of patience,  and also Exhilarating when a fish is on the end of your hook!
CAMPING-   The beauty, the smell, the stars, the work, a lesson on how to live with the 'basics'.

I am so blessed to be able to do these things in my life, during the most stressful time in my entire life.

When God promised that he would provide for our needs, he has certainly manifested to me, 
                                   that he will.

I am glad you are able to see how He is providing. i like sleeping in my bed and cooking with electricity. I do like the mountain air, though, and the smell of the campfire....oh, and i like a running water toilet.

I love the outdoors too! Though I guess I concentrate on foraging plants for survival. I enjoy animals and birds. There is nothing like a camping trip and to cook over an open fire is such an inviting challenge! Have you ever baked anything in a dutch oven?
Yep, fresh air, and walking, even on a golf course is great.
Have you tried paddling on a surf board yet? Great exercise! And you might even see a dolphin or two!
Yes, God wants us to enjoy our life, that's why he gives us guidance. May we show appreciation for all God has done for us, by the only thing we can give, our obedience! I love to see what you love.

I am not a girly girl but I am with Sheila on running water, and my own bed. I do love hiking and anything outdoors with water around. But then back to my own home or a hotel for a nice soft sleep.

I love the outdoors. I went tent camping with my parents, Played in backyards with our family and friends, loved yearly reunion outdoor picnics with aunts, uncles and cousins (with yummy potluck food), attended scout camps. Being outdoors is in our blood. Nature is beautiful.
