Cleaning smiles

In an effort to clean my house before I go mia for the next 5 weekends, I started cleaning my office.

A lot of the stuff has been hiding in a closet for more years that I know and has been moved in those boxes probably 4 times. As I was going through stuff, I found the following that made me smile:

They are handouts from my hunter’s safety course. I am not sure why I held on to them since they are out of date now. I also found a notebook with permission slips for hunting on other people’s property, information on how to keep invasive species out of the waterways and how to safely keep a firearm in your home. Fun things to find!
