With gas prices continuing going up and scarce food supplies what’s your July 4 th ( INDEPENDENCE DAY) going to be like?
So much for our INDEPENDENCE, has it become DEPENDENCE?
I am old enough to remember rationing and coupons, is Brandon bringing that back?
We don’t usually go anywhere on holidays so won’t bother us. I am just thinking of the many families that do and feel their pain at the pump. We have some empty shelves here, by the way!

I love the smell of burning spruce---I love the sound of a spring time goose---I love the feel of 40 below---from my trapline I will never go!

Baby is due June 28th, it's our first so will likely run late. Hoping the 4th is a nice quiet day with my wife and little one.
Fuel prices are high but I haven't noticed a lack of food, haven't met anyone starving in awhile. Congratulations! My first was a week early, and so was the second one...

We’re going on a week and a half trip to Georgetown lake Montana. It’s our annual family trip, every year we sit down and figure out a time where the wife and I, my dad, mom, and my brothers can all take time off work and the kids are out of school, we pick a place in the country and we rent a big house for a week or two there and go. One year it was New York, one year we went to Newport Oregon, you get the idea. It’s gonna be tight this year but we will make it. It’s important to all of us, since my brothers live 1200 miles away some years our family vacation is the only time we see each other.
We usually do all the touristy things wherever we go, might not be as much of that this year. If anyone here knows of some cool things to see or do around Georgetown that don’t cost an arm and a leg let me know, like to do some fishing too

I was telling my wife, I expect gas to be over $6/gal by July 4. We have canceled some travel plans. I am old enough to remember rationing and coupons, is Brandon bringing that back? You know France just implemented something like this supposedly. It's starting to happen more and more around the world.

Might be able to afford to go fishing some place close.

Thinking of dropping in on Coonman220. We don’t know each other, but shouldn’t he welcome for a few weeks?

It is Dependence day 365 for most of the sheep in this country. Family get together, cut/split firewood, shoot, fish and just enjoy old glory!

I'll be in Canada fishing. Only 1,000 miles each way so gas expense won't be too bad. May as well spend it now before the dollar is completely devalued.

I live on my families up north cabin land. Small private good fishing lake. My off grid hunting trapping and fishing cabin is 13 miles away on a great trout stream. I am where we traveled to when I was a kid. Wife and I do roam northern Michigan, but we both are working for retirement in 10 years so we work a lot. We have all we need at home or camp. Probably stay close to home. Much quieter this year so far, we're a tourist destination. Tourisim is down for sure.
you're only allowed so many sunrises... I aim to see every one of them!

I'm gonna wake up, go downtown and hang out at the drug store. Sounds like a good time!!! I heard they are playing Blind Melon- No Rain over in the music thread and need your help…
