Default Re: old time survival skills

Thanks for access to the downloads Jack. Interesting reading and alot of good knowledge
that for the most part, only a few still practice or even know about.
Other than those from the Appalacha region.
I'm pretty well surround by it, as alot of people (lol) consider me to be a "hillbilly"!
Been called alot worse,(lol) but when times do get tough(er) or SHTF we'll see who laughi'n
last!
My Grandparents were 'old timers' and didnt much like the "modern ways" even when I was
a kid as they were raised in hard times and had to make due with what they had.
I spent a many of summers at their place growing up and they taugh me alot on how to make due and be happy with what you have. Heck, I still think that in the early '80's they
wernt all to keen with the with the idea of elcetricity.There was always a lamp buring at night mowi'n sigh (spelling) always got used or a hand sickle for trimming.
