The Armchair Outfitter

Back at the beginning of this year, I had an idea. It seemed like a simple idea at the time. I would keep up with the number of days I spent fishing and hunting during the year. I didn’t want to keep a journal. Who has time for that? All I wanted was some way to see how many days I actually spent doing what I love. I had the Sporting Wife, who is handy with crafts, make two calendar pages I could stick on the refrigerator door and write in just a little information about each outing. Being ambitious, I thought I should shoot for thirty days on each page. After all, spending two whole months outdoors is a wonderful goal, and how hard could it be? Little did I know. Needless to say, neither page is full, and we are knocking on the door of November as I write this. I hope to add to each page before the year is out, but maybe thirty days combined would have been a better goal with which to start. Never let it be said that I don’t dream big!
