Thread: Hi, everyone!

  1. #1

    Default Hi, everyone!

    I'm an instructor at a wilderness school, a school in western Washington dedicated to preserving and passing on knowledge about wilderness survival skills, traditional living skills, sustainable farming and wildlife tracking.

    My personal passions include making bows and arrows (and shooting them!), looking at tracks and animal sign, reading lots of books and expanding my survival skills and knowledge. I also love hiking, biking and backpacking in mountainous country.

    This here is a great forum full of good folks!

    Nice to meet ya.' Western Washington, huh? Near the banks of the Potomac? That Arlington Memorial Bridge is a bugger to cross at rush hour, ain't it?

    That's why I use my spaceship. I just happen to be an astronaut travelling back from the future.

    (What's that?) Sorry, I have to go now. It's time for my medication.

    Welcome. Glad you decided to come on in. Look forward to hearing about your experiences. I like to practice "traditional living" skills myself. What do you mean when you say that? I mean skills like tanning, hunting, using a team, raising a garden, using an axe and a cross cut to fell trees...stuff like that. Oh and a little bit of sewing and harness and shoe repair also.
