When I was a teenager I could load up my Ithaca M37, put a couple sandwiches in my pockets, yell at the dog and go in any direction for miles hunting ruffed grouse once I went out the gate at my grandma's house. I could walk 3 miles or 20 miles in a big circle in one direction or another.
In order to hunt the same places I did in the 1970's I'd have to belong to 5 different hunt clubs. Down right sad. |

I thought of one that's probably going to piss some people off. I remember a time before people started putting bass-booming speakers into their cars. A person could actually be in the back yard as traffic passed and you could not hear even ONE car radio or stereo as traffic went by. I wish those days could return. Maybe don’t live in the hood.
