I have been coming here for a few months off and on, and want to extend a hearty thank you to all of the regulars that keep me coming back. I am a father, husband, gardener, canner, gatherer, fisherman and small-game hunter (wife and daughters can't bring themselves to eat "wild" so I shoot nothing I can't eat in 1 or 2 sittings). I am just starting out with my preparedness, relatively, but I am convinced that we are living in troubled times, and things will get worse before they get better. I am trying to live by the Boy Scout code. :beercheer: Murph
Welcome to the forum! Glad to have you with us! You mention that you're a "canner", among other things above. Why not can some of that "wild" meat for future consumption?
Welcome! Glad you are here. My son just joined the cub scouts... my little Wolf. It's a good way to start out in life!
Welcome to the forum! In what part of Pittsburgh do you live? I'm about 40 miles north. My son is a Bear Scout (and has gone through Tigers and Wolves). I'm an Assistant Den Leader as well as Committee Chairperson for the pack.
@bczoom I am actually about 50 miles north, but always say PGH because no one ever heard of Mercer unless local. I am currently not invloved with the scouts but avidly help my oldest daughter with her daisy projects. I have two daughters, so Girl Scouts are in my future. 40 miles puts you pretty close to me, but a little south. You above New Castle? or Butler?
You're a bit north of me. If you were coming down 79, you would get off at Portersville and take some back roads to get to my area.
