The Practical Woodsman
Education • Travel • Preparedness
The Practical Woodsman is a way to share love of the wilderness, as well as my observations, thinking, and approach to what folks today are calling 'bushcraft' and 'survival'. The focus is on what is practical, as well as pointing out certain things being demonstrated by 'bushcrafters' today that are not practical at all.

Eye Issue

I can’t remember if I told you Practical Woodsman folks this or not, but I’ve been dealing with an eye issue for two weeks that has had me looking like Quasimodo.

I’m not self conscious about it - meaning, I honestly don’t feel embarrassed about it or anything. It just is what it is, and all of us gotta deal with things of this nature from time to time. And if you haven’t ever had to deal with anything like it yet - you ain’t lived long enough, ‘cause buddy, it’s a comin’ sooner or later.

I’ve simply been waiting patiently to get over it. At the same time, it has been gross looking, and I haven’t wanted to subject anybody to having to see it. It just hasn’t been pleasant to look at my face lately - more than usual, I mean 🤣.

Anyway, it appears I’ve been on the mend for a couple of days now (what a relief) and I should be back in the video making business soon. I appreciate your patience with me these past couple of weeks while I’ve been dealing with this issue.

Hey! Y’all have a wonderful - but safe - weekend!

Rut, the Practical Woodsman guy.
