I have been
fortunate to have always lived in places that were filled with natural
beauty. I could always appreciate such things as having the woods
within a few yards of my back door, a running stream close by and the sights
and sounds of wildlife being an everyday experience. My experience of these
things haven't been from the outside looking in, either. I grew up here
in the eastern mountains where neighbors didn't live too close. Where raising
chickens, hogs, beef, gardens and canning your food was a part of life.
From the time I was old enough to be carried on my Dad's shoulders, I have
spent a major part of my free time roaming the woods and being close to
the Earth. My ancestry, like many, is comprised of many races. In my European
family tree there is German, Scottish, Irish, Dutch, Italian and who knows
what else. My American family tree consists of Cherokee and Cayuga and
possibly a few others. I, as many others, choose to follow the path of
my Native American ancestors.
