Wood owl, do you by any chance have a fondness for pistachios at all....?
Never mind, you just reminded me of another guy from south Wales who's names beenn bugging me.... Sorry.
"...Is this a site for weekend campers?.."
"...Or am I at the wrong site?..."
Bushcraft can let us reconnect with the world around us and some of it can be brought in to enrich our daily lives, I for one enjoy the 21st century and feel privileged to be able to take the best from the stone age, the iron age and the information age to build a balanced life.
I sniff the beginnings of a locked thread...
of course feel freeThis is simply a fantastic summing up of what bushcraft means to me, I'm just not that eloquent to be able to say it. May I steal it please.
Kephart doesnt really differenchiate between ordinary camping and woodcraft.
I dont get out much; I am a student and need lots of time in order to laze, after all.
But these things affect me in day to day living, how I use things, see things, understand things...
Woodowl,I am sorry you do not have a understanding of how most people live in this country of ours,it would be almost impossible to live off the land the way you describe as it would be against the law,I grew up in N.Z and Australia,solo camped,backpacked all over New Zealand and Australia,worked when i wanted,hunted deer and boar with a bow/firearm,trapped possum and rabbits,lived on trout and fresh water crayfish,learnt the edible plants from the Maoris.I often wonder how I would have lived my life if my parents hadnt emigrated to Australia,when I was six.Not everyone has a hunger to get away from civilization or just live in the great outdoors,its just good for the majority to fullfill a passion to learn skills and get time with people with similar interests.
