I’ve found that telling folks they are wrong seldom works even if they ask for the advice so I just point out what I see and recommend options and let them go from there.


Was born in a Big City Will die in the Country OK with that!

1. Find willing workers.
2. Afford to retire.


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!

There's nothing we can do to prevent either one of those.
I had a daughter that died unexpectedly a few days before her 50th birthday.


With the US so divided, I'm just glad to be on the side that believes in God, has the most guns, and knows which restroom to use.
