We could learn a little about hospitality

[furgitter]

I just got back from my first attempt at hog hunting in mississippi.It was a 9 day experamental hunt on a reserve,and lots of hunters showed up.From what i could see,I was the only out of state plate in the parking lot.I met some of the nicest people in my life there.One guy took me all arround the reserve to show me hog sign and good setups.Another gave me an orange vest (because i forgot mine).and another had me over to dinner twice with his family.I was shooting a bow and lots of guys offered to lend shotguns and rifles.And phone numbers were freely given uot in case one of us got into trouble.Its a big woods down there and a guy can get lost on a clowdy day.
Now tell me where in Wisconsin you would find that kind of hospitality.Those guys treat strangers better than most of us treat our family members.

I hunt in Jefferson County, but we do not have any hogs. We have seen some not to far from us but they have not made it to us yet.

You'll get that with anyone from my family! But I agree people down south are much more hospitable than us (in general). I have family in Southern Indiana and all through Kentucky and parts of Tennessee, they are some of the nicest people you could ever meet.
