Did anyone miss me? I was gone since Friday afternoon. My mom and I went out of town to a program run by the DNR. Its called Becoming an Outdoors Woman (a.k.a. B.O.W.). Its great! I learned firearms safety (got to handle rifles, shotguns and handguns) on Friday night, went gamebird hunting Saturday morning (didnt bag anything, tho they said Im a good shot), had a Trapping and Fur Craft class that evening (made a fox skin cap, its gorgeous ) and had a Wild Edibles/Wildflowers class this morning There was also the B.O.W. Olympics (my team didnt win ). One of the stations was shotgun shooting. The target was to shoot clay pigeons. You got 3 chances, and if the first person didnt get em, a backup person had to go in and try. The first person on our team didnt get em, so I went up. Missed the first, and blasted the second Yay! Great food, great people, great classes ^_^ This was my second year, and Im going again next year Got some pics on my digital camera, so Ill get them up in a few minutes. Still have to decide if I want to put them in a blog, or just put em on photobucket, since theres quite a few of em (about 33 on the digital. More on the disposable)
That sounded like a hoot Bip. So are you the person to have beside when one gets lost in the woods? Did they teach any navigation tips? Looking forward to the photos
I took Survival 101 last year, so yup, Im very good to have if you're lost Well, Ill have to post the pics later, cause my camera is in moms car, and she went to the park a few minutes ago >_<
