Nice! I often pickup a magazine called "Backwoodsman". They usually feature similar type artwork on the cover. Usually by one of their advertisers. Often very nice work. Some western some just wilderness type stuff.

I subscribe to it. It is a great resource for "resourcefulness".

Don't worry about getting older and still doing stupid stuff. You'll do the stupid stuff as always, only much slower. Hold my beer and watch this.......
