[QUOTE="Goldtarget, post: 523353, member: 2152"] Hate to sound like my father but I know what he means when he says "You become old only when your ways are taken from you". Free country comes with too mnany restrictions for my liking. Just like me as a teen sitting with the old woodcutters and depression miners listening to their stories Ill soon be joining the old man explaining to his grandchildren how we used to have these wonderful places called State forests that we could do activities in, that made life a little more comfortable, and sometimes turn a dollar on. .Sure theres some truly pristine expanses that should be preserved for all comers, but these nutters want the old State forests turned over! Ive watched my childhood backyard swallowed up by Historic overlays, and lockouts. The young of the communities surrounding it will never truly get to experience it. It was once meant for all. The part that really sticks in in me is the management post lockout. Just a ticking tradegy waiting to happen. All the good intentions wont mean diddly when those fires that will come raging through wipe off part of the map. Hard not to get angry about. Thanks for the share DrDuck [/QUOTE]
