    Hello my name is Lonnie and My wife is Connie.
    Here at Far North Bushcraft And Survival you will learn about many long forgotten tricks and tips of the old time woodsmen. Not only will you learn about bushcraft / woodcraft but you will learn many things that will help you to survive in less than ideal "survival" situations as well. Come along and sit with me by the campfire as I delve into these subjects in a way that you can easily learn to then do yourself.
    I will show you how to make shelters, gather food, use wild medicines as well as start fires with or without matches, lighters, ferro rods, etc

    You may have had this idea or someone may have already said something. So here it is, you write a book on knots just like you have done here and Connie writes one on her cooking. I try keeping all this in mind and even write it down sometimes but then I forget it or put it in the trash. So you'd be helping me and many many other knuckle heads like myself. With a book I can keep in my pack. Thanks too both of you for the enjoyment I have had over the years. Stay safe.

So I went to Switzerland. Thanks to the rope tensioner and felix, a nice subscriber from Canada has invited me to bushcraft in the Rocky Mountains! I'm so happy. I could never have done it alone. Wants to see real life and not hotels. This is how life can go sometimes! I could almost visit you ;-)
