From God's Country

Black powder was a means for me to extend my time in the woods. At least that's how it started.....

I hunt and shoot centerfire rifle with a variety of calibers and ehjoy each one. I reload for most of them and a couple handgun calibers too.

Muzzleloading started for me with a CVA Optima2 package and has gone on from there. I am here and on several other firearm related forums to learn and then learn some more.

Thank you kindly for being here to feed my curiosity. I read a lot, and I am an information fiend.

I come up with Gulliver, MI, somewhat Eastern U.P.. I started on the other end of Da U.P., go up from time to time.

Ahhh. The U.P. Of subject but please tolerate me as I reflect. 35 years ago my friend and I were fishing the Fox. It was September, a beautiful day, and the leaves were turning. We took a moment to enjoy the scenery and a Bald eagle flew over. We looked at each other and felt a little sorry for the people who had not enjoyed that moment with us. We made a pact and every year on the last weekend of Sept. we go to Seney and spend a few days fishing for Brookies. We missed a few years but not many.

Ah the U.P. , where it's said they have 2 seasons .Shoveling and swatting

 

[snapbang]

Oh yeah, there is that. I sit here laughing.

A relative established our Gulliver property in 1936. Now it's mine and I really enjoy the solitude.

An Upper Peninsulanian. Or is it Upper Peninsulite. Upper Peninsularian. ‍


How about we just say somebody that lives on the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.

If you're a michigander (sounds like some kind of waterfowl), you're either a yooprr or a troll(someone who lives below the bridge).
