the Cover Photo by Larry Offner After a day far and away, the rewards speak for themselves.
A Way With
Words: February,
2008 "Often
I have been exhausted on trout streams, uncomfortable, wet, cold, briar
scarred, sunburned, mosquito bitten, but never, with a fly rod in my hand
have I been less than in a place that was less than beautiful." -
Charles Kuralt
"The day and
night before the opening of bird season lasts longer than anything,
including the week before Christmas holidays. Awful, horrible things keep
you awake such as will it be raining, or what if the dogs get hot noses or
the quail have all moved? And then the next morning dawns clear and bright
with just the right breeze, and it is another ten years until
afternoon." -
Robert Ruark
If you're looking for something more...
If you're addicted to wild places and
twilights, then join us around the campfire, along the stream, in the duck blind or a
canoe. We're just men and women who love the outdoors, love to fly fish on
mountain streams, southern bayous and salty flats. We relish the joy of a
good pointer in a golden field; a reliable rifle, a favorite old Lucky 13, or a
secret covey. We treasure the good things in life like a chattering fire,
an owl in the distance, a sturdy paddle and a sense of place...
If you're like us, and grown weary of the endless how-to and
where-to articles in the magazines...bored with the jazzy, snazzy and
latest gizmo and gadget review...would just rather read something by an
author who thinks like you do, you're in the right place.
We harken back to the golden age of outdoors writing, to the
likes of Hemingway, Norman Maclean, Havilah Babcock, Gene Hill and Robert Traver.
Words and images that remind us that what we all cherish is what
we all share: A tin cup. Out there. Alone or among friends.
The fire's warm. Stay awhile and let's talk
about our day...
An
online magazine celebrating the words and images that express the essence of being "out there."
