Brother Jim's happy place...the Hunting Shack. I shared over 40 years with Jim up in the deep woods of the Kabetogama State Forest in Northern Minnesota. Every single trip up there to hunt, work or in his case relax his first words as he walked out the door for the day's experiences were 'Into the Woods'.
Every time I smell my favorite aroma, cedar, I think of Jim because as kids he made and sold cedar wreaths for Xmas. The whole house hung on to the sweet smell for weeks. Oh, why I placed this picture against my fireplace...Jim was also a pyromaniac. He sat next to the barrel stove and would sneak wood into it and sweated us out of the shack Every night. It wasn't unusual for us one by one to burst out of the bunk, run out the door and stand in ankle deep snow in just underwear to try and cool off while 'praising his fire building abilities'
