I decided to watch that Netflix 'Win the Wilderness' show....tbh I grew up like that in Maine...it was fun watching but a lot of it seemed like a normal week where I grew up at Little Lyford deep in the Maine Woods.
That’s where so grew up. Now an AMC camp 
That’s my Dad and I going back to where I was a kid in the 1980s
In the old days we used Folsom Air Service as bush pilots. Now that’s long gone so we took up a different aircraft
You can learn a bit about the Folsoms here; our only access to the outside world in winter
He was iconic. I remember him as a kid
When I was a kid we had no electricity where I grew up. That was a different life to be sure
My wife is from Ethiopia… we both grew up without electricity…I try to compare it but she’s not impressed with my hardship stories 😂 anyway my family chose that life from one of privilege they had prior, so it’s obviously different.
One of my earlier memories is of a raccoon getting into our chicken coop at night and killing the chickens and I had to go hold the light while my dad used a mallet and then a gun to deal with the problem…
