Moved to rural PA with youngest son 2 years ago. Started hunting then and met the best friends I have ever and will ever have. My hunting buddies!
They taught me everything I need to know about hunting (and then some LOL) I live for the next camp it's that awesome!
Every flower has a history and every flower symbolizes something. Often the history and symbols are confusing and contradictory but they are still fascinating. If your birthday is in the month of June, your flower is the rose. Here is the story and language of your flower.
The Linguistic Roots for the Name Rose
The Latin name for the rose, rosa, literally means red. Diana Wells suggests that saying that rose means red is like saying the heart is a muscle situated on the left side of the rib cage, it is an incomplete understanding of what the blossom symbolizes.
History of the Flower
Quite possibly the most popular flower in the history of the world, the rose has a multitude of legends and myths surrounding it. A flower of such prominence must be related to the gods of our world or at least one would think so when considering the wealth of otherworldly associations attached to the blossom. Was the smile of Amor the source of our first rose or did it fall from the hair of the goddess of dawn, Aurora?
The sweet scent and frowsy beauty of the blossom resulted in it being popular among the rulers of this world. The infamous Cleopatra had her pillows filled with rose petals. Romans used petals to decorate their feasts and even had canopies filled to shower petals upon the guests. Sometimes the Romans love of roses became too much and the shower of petals would actually smother guests.
The Symbolism of Roses
Jewish legends attributed the color of the rose to the first blood that darkened the earths soil. The Teutons believed the rose was a symbol of the underworld and called their battlefields rose gardens.

The April flower is the daisy. Daisies are associated with innocence. The gerbera daisy has large colorful blooms, which has made it a favorite with flower lovers. There is a legend that a nymph wanting to escape unwanted attention, transformed herself into the daisy. Ever after this the April birth flower has the flower meaning of implicity and modesty. An alternate birth flower for April is the sweet pea.
The Gerbera Daisy is a perennial favorite. This daisy and April birth flower is a wonderful flower to design boquets with as it can be the focal point or an accent. The Gerbera Daisy is actually a perennial herb native to South Africa. The Gerbera Daisy is also known as the African Daisy, Transvaal Daisy, Gerb, and Barberton Daisy. It is one of the most popular cut flowers.
Just thought maybe you could use a flower today! If that made ya smile, my mission was accomplished!
The basic idea behind NorthEast Traditions is actually in the name itself, or the abbreviated name at least, which is NE Traditions. I'm all about the NorthEast because thats where I'm from. I am a fan of routing for the home team. And thats where the problems start to present themselves. #1, there are no NorthEastern Teams, not one. Getting back to the NE thing, its a play on words... NE = any Their not just mine they're NEbodys!
thanks.i wish you the best of luck too.i know what you are saying.its been way to cold.i cant wait to get out there by the river and get some trout too.i think this year will be a great year.
Came home to a pretty dang cool beautiful double rainbow night before last! You know what they say, if you make a wish or say a prayer on a double rainbow, almost anything can come true!
We have a good time when we go up to coyote hunt. Mosquito Creek holds the hunt next week, starting 12:00 AM on Friday the 20th to Sunday the 22nd. They usually get quite a few coyotes turned in for some good money prizes. Our group turned one in two years ago which was pretty cool. It was only 32 lbs so did not place in the top but still got the camp $200. Not bad getting paid for having fun. We mostly do drive hunts but in the early morning and evening we do try our calls.Last year the deep snow really made it hard to hunt up by our camp so hopefully this year will be better.
I wish you luck, have a great and safe hunt. Take care.
Do you have a next door neighbor like these???
