Boy have I come a long way as far as not taking silly, unnecessary things, or things that are unnecessarily heavy or complicated!
I hope you all are doing well out there. I see @GHuns has been busy!
I took a few days off because of the holiday weekend here in the states (Labor Day), and tried not to work on things and just take it easy. I have enjoyed the recess but looking forward to getting back to things tomorrow (Tuesday). Just a reminder that I have another online channel and work that I do unrelated to Practical Woodsman, so I am literally always recording something, writing something, uploading something, managing communities online.
I try to hopscotch the two things, one week I primarily focus on Practical Woodsman, the following week I focus on my other work.
Point is, I rarely take a break from content creation. And honestly, it’s not easy for me to take breaks. I enjoy this stuff so much. But if I’m not mindful, I can get close to burn out.
Anyway, I hope you guys and gals are all doing good out there. Looking forward to new stuff this week.

Wow, I’ll tell you folks what… I was seriously considering pulling the plug on the Audio-Version of Practical Woodsman podcast because the last time I took a gander at the ratings, they were low, and the downloads weren’t great. (Plus, I have to pay a platform monthly to publish them.) But I ran over to check out the current rating, and you folks have really come through. You’ve all popped it up to a 4.0, which is about where I need it to be to maintain my enthusiasm. So thank you one and all who have contributed to this raised score - I really, really appreciate it, and I’ll keep coming up with practical stuff to talk about every couple of weeks involving love of the woods for the foreseeable future.
