Exercising and eating right everyday are the keys to being healthy. If one is not active then chances are they are not healthy. Kids nowadays grow up with technology and that is the only place they want to be. I am not that kind of person. I must be outdoors on a nice day and doing something all of the time. I am an outdoor addict. This is how I stay active, and also I go to the gym almost every morning and it makes me feel better and better mentally and physically.

If I am not hunting I am either prepping for the next season, or throwing a line in the water to see what I can catch. Hunting is something I crave and the long off season is right after spring when turkey goes out. Summer is when animals are growing and little ones are running around. During this time of year I get the trail cameras out, put up tree stands, and scout for new spots. I could be sitting in front of the TV, but that is not going to happen. The outdoors is my natural high.

On a nice day I have to be outside. I do not even like to sleep in because my day is wasted. I cherish every moment of every day because they will never come again. Being outside is my passion and that is what I see in my career and my future. Even in the winter I am outside. I am either bringing in wood to stay warm, or I am skiing down the mountain. There is so much more to do outside than inside. The choices are endless because I am not trapped in a space with four walls.

If the weather is not too cooperative I can still find something to do. On a rainy day I can work on my bike and get it prepped for the next time I ride. Every moment counts in my life and I plan on catching every one of them.
