Local boy checking in...lower Alabama
« on: September 27, 2009, 04:32:36 PM »
Boonie reporting for duty!  Nah, all kidding aside, I ran across this site a few weeks back while I was on another site I live at.  A fella posted the link to this place and suffice to say, I clicked it.  I found myself over here for most of that evening reading in the survival forum.  Interesting stuff there, the entire site for that matter. 

I'm not as old as most of the men here it seems, at 43, I guess I'm still a young-un, however if I did grow a beard, it would be salt-n-peppa.  I'll keep my ear to the ground, pay attention and hopefully learn something from the guys who have been there, done that.

I love spending time with my family and working around my farm.   I love God, like guns and believe that this country was founded on both.  About the only thing I fear is my daughter's future on this planet.  I don't look for trouble, avoid it like the plague, but if it comes knocking, it better have a plate lunch.

I'll try not to get on anyone's nerves.

Thanks for the warm welcome!  I don't get over here as much as I'd like to, but when I do, I feel welcome.  What amazes me most about this site is it's size...it's huge.  I've even referenced it over at a new forum called www.1911.com that I hang out at.  I think several of the members came over here and STAYED!  It's all good, lots to read here.

Again, thanks for the warm welcome.
