Pitch a tent and defy the cold
The fair-weather campers are at home by the fireplace, the flurry of camping that goes with the major hunting seasons is finished and a lot of Oregon's public-owned campgrounds are buttoning up for the winter.
"The formal ones, the big ones" all are closed, said Ray Crist, public information officer for the Detroit district of Willamette National Forest. "We normally wouldn't be getting much use by now in our campgrounds anyway, as cold as it is."
There still are plenty of places to pitch a tent and build a campfire, and in a lot of cases fees have been waived until next spring.

Many veterans eligible for free fishing and hunting licenses and other recreational discounts
Many Ohio military veterans (and certain active members of the military) are eligible to receive free hunting and fishing licenses, free boat registrations and special recreational discounts at Ohio State Parks facilities, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.
"Ohio owes a great debt to her veterans," said Sam Speck, ODNR director. "Providing these benefits to our veterans who enjoy the outdoors is one way our state can show its gratitude for their service."

Hawaii Tribune-Herald: News
An appeals court has overturned the trespassing conviction of a homeless man who camped regularly near the "Pine Trees" surfing beach in Kona.
In an opinion issued last week, the Hawaii Intermediate Court of Appeals said District Judge Joseph P. Florendo Jr. was wrong to require Michael J. Kelly to prove he was camping on public lands rather than to make the prosecution prove he wasn't.
Kelly was charged with two misdemeanor counts of second - degree criminal trespass after police cited him Feb. 7 and March 8, 2002.

As spring spins into early summer, one of the best places to chart the changing of the seasons on the prairie is Glacial Lakes State Park near Starbuck.
The joyful wildflowers of spring are waning, but emerging on the prairie floor are the stars of summer-milkweed, asters, yellow and purple coneflowers, black-eyed Susans, blazing star, goldenrod, big bluestem, and Indian grass. In another month the prairie will be awash in the rainbow colors of deep summer.

Yellowstone National Park's fantastic vistas and wildlife are found just west of Cody.
Yellowstone Park marks its 131st year in 2003. More than three million people visit the park each year.
The park is home to more geysers than any other place on earth, and Yellowstone's array of wildlife often may be viewed from the road.
Encompassing about 2.2 million acres, the park is dotted with numerous lakes including Yellowstone Lake, which is the largest and most prominent.
A massive network of rivers and streams provide the arteries of the park. Visitors may enjoy sitting by a clear-running brook or picnicking by the Yellowstone River.

The Spider Lake Resort in the town of Birchwood is at the center of a zoning debate that is pitting neighbors, the town of Birchwood, and the Washburn County Zoning Committee against a proposed development based on a condominium structure in a campground facility.
The former owners of the resort, Edward and Jeanette Hoge, applied for a conditional use permit (CUP) on Feb. 24 to expand their facilities.
Their application read as follows: "Proposed improvement for 28 additional [campsites] to total 58 campsites and new home ... upgrade campground to get all 58 units on sewage sites also remove three cabins and one mobile home.

Spending Time With the Democratic Women's Club
By Norma Jean Fazenbaker
Clinton
During the last week in October, I spent three days in Ocean City with the United Democratic Women's Club at their convention for all the Maryland Districts. It is a lot of fun being with women who feel the same way about the Democratic party. We are all hoping that we can get our party members riled up for the next two elections so we can take back our state and our country. I am asking all of my readers who are good Democrats to make sure that you are registered and that you vote.

Virginia's Retreat
As you explore Virginia's Retreat you dont want to stray too far from where the action is. Set up a home base in one of these state or private campgrounds for easy access to your car and the freedom to explore a wide area each day. Or, tighten the circle of exploration and abandon the car for a more back-to-nature experience with a backpacking trek through wildlife management areas. In either case, remember that following the rules gives everybody a chance to enjoy Virginia's outdoors. Confine all fires to the grill area of your campsite or use a backpacking stove, if you are headed into the WMAs.

Pioneer Times, Today
Austin, Texas (April
29, 2003)--In today’s nonstop world of high technology and tools
of convenience, many Americans have lost sight of their roots and take
their gadgets for granted. Cell phones, computers, microwaves and even
electricity haven’t been around since the beginning of time. A
new book focusing on the life and times of early pioneers illustrates
the hardships and creative ways of living many early Americans had to
face before the age of technology.
Living in Pioneer Times, which was set to release April 1,
was written by Country Line Magazine’s Homespun Editor

Hey ya'll, what's up? This week it is my privilege and pleasure to introduce ya'll to our third and final freshman ... so, without further ado, I would like ya'll to meet my grandfather's-cousin's-nephew's-sister's-grandbaby's-

OK, maybe not entirely ... but close! Check this out - Kalee has family in Oklahoma, Arizona and Wyoming. I have family in Oklahoma ... my dad worked in Wyoming ...
RETURN TO MOAB, 2039 AD REDUX
I don't know what made me do it. Some kind of grim, masochistic satisfaction,
I suppose. To prove to myself, at least, that it was as bad and weird
and crazy as I'd feared. That I hadn't been a lifelong cynic for no
damn reason at all. Now I know. Now I know that everything we'd feared
was here. And ahead of schedule.
I moved away from the United States in 2006 and relocated on a small
island chain in the South Pacific called Funafuti. I was a fool to go
there, however, and had already been warned. Global warming and rising
sea levels jeopardized the island atoll as far back as 1999.
