RE: What are ya'll's Backgrounds?
Why do I believe that whole story by GregH?
I grew up on a 150 acre Christmas tree farm. (We also raised corn and had horses.) I went to college after high school Didn't like the corporate world, so I joined the Navy and spent 17 years in uniform. Now I work for a software company and live in a little place in the boonies.
Cut my hunting teeth with my Dad and my uncles. We hunted as a family (and when I say family, I mean all 30 or so of us). Not always at one area, but always met for breakfast in the wee hours of the morning and always met to cut up the deer (which we shared) in the evening. Great memories.

I was raised a poor white boy and things were so tough that every year the only new item I got every year was from my grandpa; hegave me something to wear and something to play with, so he gave me new bib overalls with the pockets cut out. I was a happy child.
