Having just returned from 4 days in the Wisconsin north woods to participate in the annual deer hunt, time spent in the forest brings the opportunity to reflect and clear the mind. For me the highest quality thinking time requires a sense of solitude and quiet while observing the natural order.
Traditional Wisconsin deer camps are steeped in tradition with a strong connection to family bonding ever strengthening our allure with the North Country and our family cultures. Stories and legends of trophy bucks and tags filled over the past decades connect generations and the commitment between grandfathers and grandsons form the familial bonds that make these tribal gatherings required seasonal events.
Over huge meals of wild game and all the comfort foods you could imagine, plans are made, pecking orders are reviewed and confirmed while tomorrows hunt gets planned.
After dinner deer camp members wander down country and forest roads to visit neighbors to talk about deer sightings, bucks that got away and stories of misses.
On Thanksgiving Day, we celebrate our culture and our traditions as well as all the friends and family that are woven together to make up our lives. Each family has its’ own traditions for the annual celebration and recognition of our appreciation for each other.
