My 4 grandparents were all born around 1885 so back then fish and game were part of their diet.


My dad's grandparents were from the German-Swiss Alps and came to America around 1910.

I would shoot them cottontail rabbits that I cleaned and skinned. They loved them because they ate them in Switzerland.

I would also give Striper fillets to my grandparents.


It is nice to listen to the elderly tell stories even if you have heard them before.


This is how the indigenous people passed down their history with the elderly members telling old stories around the campfire.


That is why there is something magic about sitting around a campfire with family or friends in the wilderness.
