    Hi Ray
    Mount Moses. Sinai desert. where moses received Ten commandments

    Lady in lake Near the River Danube

    I was born in Natures wild domain...I am one of natures children. I have always admired her. She shall be my Glory...And whenever I see her, emotions of pleasure roll in my breast, and swell and burst like waves on the shore of the Ocean, in prayer and praise to him who has placed me in her hand.

    George Copway

    Love and Blessings

    Hi Ray,

    To think that little more than a year ago, I had no clue what 'bushcraft' even was...lol :)  Since I have only recently discovered you - figuratively, that is - I am making up for lost time.  I've read 3 of your books and have conjured up some vintage episodes of "Bushcraft".  Hey...this is good stuff!  Perfect for thunderstorm days at the cottage!  Ray, you are an absolute delight :)  I wish you'd visit Canada for a tour!  I'd go.  The disturbing thing is...once you start, it becomes addictive!!!  Just like really good chocolate...  Wonderful work!!! More, please :)

    In the beginning of all things, wisdom and knowledge were with the animals, for Tirawa, the One Above, did not speak directly to man. He sent certain animals to tell men that he showed himself through the beast, and that from them, and from the stars and the sun and moon should man learn.. all things tell of Tirawa

    Hello Mr. Mears!!! :)
    SO excited to hear about your upcoming lectures! I very well may be near Kent on business just at that time, attending a gemological seminar near by. I will definitely try my very best to attend an evening at Tunbridge Wells. Catching this opportunity is a rare treat for a Canadian lass, you know?! ;) Well, I shall sharpen my pencils and hope for the best. If it's meant to be, it will be.
    Btw - no luck yet in finding a tutor in crafting a traditional birch-bark canoe...but, still looking.
    Take care,
    Leah M.

    DEAR RAY !
    I CANNOT FOR THE LIFE OF ME UNDERSTAND WHY YOUR COURSES AND THE LIKE ARE NOT USED TO REHABILITATE CRIMINALS AND PEOPLE WITH SOCIAL BEHAVIOUR PROBLEMS AS IT STRIKES ME THAT PRISONS DO LITTLE TO MAKE PEOPLE BETTER AND IN MOST CASES MAKE THEM WORSE ! THIS IS NOT FOR THE PURPOSE OF REHABILITATION AS THE PRISONS WERE SUPPOSEDLY DESIGNED FOR !
    INDEED SOCIETY IS IN DESPERATE NEED OF REHABILITATION SO THAT WE CAN BE PUT BACK IN TOUCH WITH WHO WE ARE ! WE WOULD ALL BE A LOT FREEER AND LESS CONFUSED !..................
