Cleanliness is akin to godliness Oct 28, 2019

Show notes

The title phrase was first recorded in a sermon in the 1700's but is an ancient thought dating back to early Hebrew. In short, folks realized that being clean was directly related to health. In this episode we talk about Sam's weekend on the paddle trip. Being a sweeper, or in cowboy terms "riding drag". We give a brief overview/recap from a previous episode on CWD (chronic wasting disease) and talk about sampling methods. This conversation lead us into meat and food care. More importantly, emphasis on how to keep a sanitary environment while processing your own food. For those interested in farm or field to table, this is an often overlooked topic in the guides to harvesting and processing your own foods.

Mikey fills in for Sam this week. Sam is in Yellowstone, possibly being breakfast for a Grizzly. We talk about the upcoming events including the two foot races being held by Richmond Co chapter as well as our main event of the year, River Dance- come out and bid on an awesome trip or item, dance, get fed, have a great time. You can even bid on Cody's popular guided woodcock hunt with a hot lunch prepared fresh in the field, or you can bid on Sam's famous fly fishing trip complete with a cold sandwich on the creek. (If you aren't sure about that, go back and listen to some of our top-guide episodes for the reference.)
We talk about a few of the boats of Cody's past and why Cody is not much of a paddler. Cody gets a bit inflated when talking of how well he fishes. Mikey talks about her role on the Outdoor Heritage advisory council. We discuss boating safety for the summer. Mikey tells of being attacked by a wicked beaver while on her birthday kayak trip.
