My Brother Rod in Field and Stream

This is just like the old coffee shop, which was like the old coffee shop down the street. Pull up a chair, sit down and enjoy some good discussions. Please, no political, religious or racial posts.

My Brother Rod in Field and Stream

Post by Scott C. »

My brother was nominated for one of the conservation hero's of Field and Stream.
He made it to the top six in this October's issue.
He warned me to be careful when talking to reporters, they kept asking him if he was a leader until he said I guess and now "it comes natural to him".

They also came out with cameras and spent time with him photoing and videoing.
The six get to go to the Whitehouse for dinner and the winner gets a Toyota truck.
Here's a link to the video.

Vince,
Thanks but I can't be in the same category as my brother.
It's amazing to see people that have their life in order, things work.
He works full time with travel up and down the north east, teaches motorcycle riding class for the PA DOT, fishes all the time, plays with his old BMW bikes, is grandfather to my nephews kids and does the volunteer work yet he never walks around saying he doesn't have any time.
I should make it a point to learn more from him.
