I've gotten into camping over the past 2 years. My grandparents had a pop-up camper and always said that it was there if anyone wanted to use it, so my girlfriend and I gave it a chance and we've been hooked ever since. Got out once in 05 and 4 times in 06, and already planning for 07. Hoping to get out more than last year, we have both been really busy, and it's tough to find the time sometimes. What's odd is that we never see any other young couples in the campgrounds, granted that doesn't bother me, but I think there's alot that they are misssing out on. We do try to take friends on occasion to try and promote the hobby.

I have hunted in the past, but never got my liscence this year. I love going to 3-D archery shoots, but didn't really drag the bow out any other time this year.

Also enjoy taking the motorcycle out, but everything took a hit this year, as my grandfather hasn't been in the best shape and i try to see him once a week, because, well, he really means a lot to me. Now I have some more time to do things since my grandparents head to Florida every winter.

Oh yeah, playing with Jeeps and tractors also!

I love fishing and camping, and almost anything else you can do outside. I used to hunt but I havent in a few years.

Venison is good...Moose is better.

Spend as much time with your granddad as you can.

I'll second that. I like hunting but don't really care for venison. I only go out looking for racks when I do go, and any meat would likely be donated through Hunters Sharing The Harvest.

Camp, fish, and 50 / 100 mile one day endurance racing with the horses. Oh, did I mention horse back riding too. Used to do mounted security for NASCAR at Pocono, but have not last 2 years.
Hay farming for the horses, and my FORD's !

BallsoutTrac · #13 (**permalink**) 01-18-2007, 08:38 AM

gui88ford · #14 (**permalink**) 01-18-2007, 08:55 AM

Yeah I believe it plus you dont have to worry about being stranded cause you broke your Truck. You'll only have to tow home the 4 wheeler which you would have had to do anyway.
