Dear Blog Readers,
In a few short months this blog will turn 5–years old, and for that fact I am extremely proud. Granted, I haven’t been the most prolific in making new blog posts over the past few years, but I guess marriage and having a new baby in the household tends to tie up one’s available time just a bit. Still, I consider outdoors blogging to be a very important part of my life.
With that said, in just days I will be announcing a new outdoors blog venture about which I am extremely excited. Rest assured, the Sportsman’s Blog will continue to exist, but some of my future blogging efforts will also be done in a whole new venue. I suspect the announcement will “officially” be made sometime later next week when all the final details become available.
In the meantime, I want to take this opportunity to once again THANK all my loyal blog readers. You all know who you are…and if you’ve been leaving comments I know who many of you are, too. A person doesn’t stick with blogging for this long without knowing there are folks who actually read and care about what a blogger is attempting to communicate. Indeed, I have always felt as though my writing efforts were warmly received, and to each of you I extend my deepest gratitude.
Thanks again!
Jim Braaten
