Daze Outside: The Misadventures and Musings of an Outdoorsman ExtraordinaireThere is nothing so funny as what happens to us every day. Enter the world of outdoorsman extraordinaire Bob Hill, as he unveils his magical humor in a variety of outdoor adventures. You will help him fight hunger and drowsiness as he pursues Chinook salmon on Oregon's beautiful Columbia River with his wife just "reeling and squealing"; endure his camping nightmares in "The Camper from "; observe the outdoorsman's battle between the sexes in "Too Late To Hunt, Too Cold To Fish"; contemplate what makes a man a man in "Blurring the Line of Distinction Between the Sexes"; learn how to catch crappie from a real expert in "Them Minners Are a Might Big"; and even share some heart-warming moments in "Learning New Tricks from an Old Dog". "The Magic of Opening Day" should be required reading for hunters and non-hunters alike. "Just Because I Won't Shoot a Turkey Doesn't Mean I Have Something Against Them" will have you rolling on the floor! "You just can't make up stuff this funny", Bob says, after battling a fox squirrel that fell in love with his blaze orange cap. This book is a must read for everyone who loves the outdoors and loves to laugh. |
