Suzanne at work, with a tool she will put to use on Saturday, the start of Florida crossbow season, it is delayed a week behind the start of traditional bow season. We are both the same age, but Suzanne is notably healthier, something she attributes to consuming no processed food and leading a low stress life. The link above speaks of her fieldcraft and perspectives. They are not considered unusual in our rural community where terms like ‘self reliance’ have physically observable expressions, it isn’t just a platitude bantered about.
What was the trophy with the airplane atop it for?
I’ll look next time I’m there, but it is an F6F, Richard the owner is from a big USN family.
