Fun Summer

OK, I know it has been some time since my last post and I sincerely apologize.  But with all the great weather this summer I could not stay indoors on the computer.

I have some great stories and pictures to post about the summer of 2012.  Please be patient and stay tuned.

With summer waning, I want to encourage everyone to get out there and enjoy while you can.  It will be too soon when that cool wind starts to blow winter into swing and you will wish you had been outside more during the nicer weather.

Remember that I always appreciate your emails about your adventures in the great outdoors.  I may even post some of them for you so that you can share with friends and family.  So keep those emails coming in to me HERE.

See you soon...

Summer in Tennessee

Summer Is Almost Here

Well, summer is just around the corner.  Tennesseans are checking their fishing tackle, camping gear, and other outdoor equipment preparing for the summer.  Tennessee offers many options for the outdoorsman: Camping, Hunting, Fishing, Hiking, and more.

During the warmer months, Tennesseans and tourists alike visit our state to take advantage of the scenic beauty, plentiful natural areas, and state and national parks.  I am including a couple of links that will help you locate information relating to these pursuits.  I hope that everyone will have a great summer and hope that you will comment on this blog with stories about your favorite camping spot, fishing spot, or getaway location.
