I am here for Friends and Networking

About Me

You are a primitive man on the Savannah. You see something move out of the corner of your eye. You assume it's a Hyena you run you live. If you assume it's the wind and you're wrong you die. We have the genes of the ones who ran. We're genetically wired to believe living forces we cannot see."I wish I had been born at the birth of my country, instead of her death". It was not meant for me to live in that time and who am I to argue? I am to be IN this world, but NOT part of it. Evil will ruin it".A Freetrapper secured his own gear out of his own pocket. His horse, pack mule, rifle, traps and possibles were his free and clear. He was not bound to the fur companies. He sought his own path trapped where he chose and when he chose. When the season came to an end he sold his furs and what he took in was his earned through his own blood and sweat. I live in Galena Kansas originally from Topeka I hope to return someday. I am an anachronism born out of time. I was told by a good friend once "Men like you settled this country only to have it civilized by teachers,lawyers and judges. I Hunt,furtrap and fish you will never see me in the latest pilgrim fashion statement of camouflage nor do I hang dead animals on my walls. I try to live with nature not against. An old Indian proverb tells how in time mother earth will become filled with the wretchedness of mankind and will rid herself of all that offends her. Then she will be returned to her pristine glory. I come from rural people and was raised with simple and traditional values. I have a son he is my world, my life revolves around him. It is my goal to send him into the world to be the best person he can be, he is very intelligent, creative,polite, considerate and kind so far Ive done my job well.Myspace Backgrounds
