PLANNING A WINTER CAMPING TRIP
When planning a winter camping trip, especially if snow camping, remember that travel will be much slower than in the summer. Reduce your mileage goal by 50% to 60%. Daylight hours are fewer in the winter, which will also limit your time. Normal activities around camp take longer in cold weather.
Bison cooks much faster than beef. Because it has very low fat, it tends to dry out if it is overcooked. We suggest that you plan on cooking it about half to two-thirds the time you would normally cook beef.

Hunting season is coming soon my friends. Time to freshen up your recipe plans with this Venison Loin Roast. I prefer to add a few more veggies and remember to experiment with various seasonings. Buttermilk biscuits and sweet potatoe make great side dishes.
VENISON LOIN ROAST
1 deer loin roast, about 3½ lb
Salt and pepper
¼ lb suet or salt pork
½ cup water
2 or 3 medium onions
Wipe roast clean with damp cloth.
Trim off any strong-smelling fat.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper and place in shallow roasting pan, skin side up.
Cut suet or pork in ¼-inch thick slices and lay over top of roast.
Place in a moderately slow oven (325 F) and roast uncovered for 2 hr.
At the end of the first hr, add ¼ cup hot water and the peeled onions which have been cut in quarters.
When deer loin is done, remove crisp suet or pork and discard.
Remove onions, skim off extra fat, and add remaining ¼ cup water.
Scrape all browned residue from the bottom of the pan to make pan gravy.
Return onions, reheat, and serve hot with the roast.
5 to 6 servings.

I know it’s sad to think about the idea of cold weather. But my friends, summer in New Hampshire is almost over.
We usually make all these plans for the summer, but most of the time we don’t time or money don’t permit us to do everything.

I hope you are all enjoying the summer. One of the favorite summer activities of Americans is boating, there is nothing like it, taking the wind in and the smell of the ocean, is just a wonderful experience.
Sadly every year there is a lot of boating accidents and tragedy strikes many of our families.
To make sure you have a happy and accident free summer please take advice on this great article by: “Pursue the Outdoors” on Boating Safety.
Boating, when a few simple rules are followed, is one of the safest family activities there is. U.S. statistics show boating is twice as safe as biking, five times as safe as driving a car, and 24 times as safe as scuba diving. By practicing safe boating, you will provide a wonderful pastime for yourselves and give your children a love of the water that will last them a lifetime.
