i went for a walk last night to stump shoot a bit and just be in the woods.   unfortunately, farm work has kept me so busy this would be my first time out this summer.  when i stepped in i was thinking about an auction i was just at where our cattle didn't fetch a great price.  my mind was on overdrive.  i walked around for 1/2 hour without seeing a single bird or squerril.  my farm is loaded with them- i knew something was wrong.  i started picking out rotting logs and letting arrows fly.  by my third arrow my mind was clear, and i felt like i belonged in the woods again.  i went around and checked a few stands, and some old generational trails.  i even started to see critters again.  it was great, and it was exactly what i needed after a tough day. 

don;t forget to get back out there before season, or next thing you know you will find a deer staring at you from 80 yards.  the woods are kind, and they will let you back in- but you have to ask.

sonny:
I have said it before- will say it again- that I fully believe that a short walk in the woods is good for the soul.
 

cowboy:
I believe in what you say AM! I too need to get out before season - you loose so much from being in society day to day!!

mullet:
I'm fortunate that my job keeps me in the woods almost every day.But when I have to get away in "huntin' mode",my wife calls it sanity maintenance.

cowboy:
Sanity maintanance ;D ;D ;D. I'll have to remember that one!
