Trad gang sure put a smile on my face!
« on: April 06, 2007, 12:46:00 PM »
Some of you know my wife of twenty six years left me a few weeks back to seek a better life with more material items and success in it. I just want to say since i have been a member here i have met no better people on this earth, and made some great friends thorough this site. Next week i will no longer have the computor to visit with many of you. For how long? i don't know. But hope within the year to hook back up and reconnect with you. I'm headed for the cabin in the woods along a nice river and live the simple life with nature and beauty and carry my many sticks made or traded for with friends on this site. I will make it to the post office once in a while so if you need my addy for something unfinished PM me and i will send it. I hope this site continues to bring joy in peoples souls like it did me. Happy hunting Boys and girls and "Walk in beauty."                                Mato Cante

Vic, We can't have this Brother! I have an older computer that I was going to hook up in another room in the house. You need it more than I. We just need to get it to you. Sounds like an Iowa road trip is in order. PM me man!

Mr. Vic,

I sure have enjoyed pm'ing with a fellow Iowegian Tradganger.  And man, what a bummer you're going through.  I can't imagine the stress and grief. I'll definitely keep you in my prayers, bro.  

You will really be missed on this forum.  Bet you I'm not the only one that has appreciated your contributions to the forum.  Hope you can take LeRoy up on his offer of the computer.  And if that doesn't work you can always get a free gmail or hotmail email account that you can check out at your library.

Chin up bro, and I hope to see you soon.  I'll be pm'ing you.

mato cante,

sounds like you are doing what i would do in your situation, going to the source.  (and the best thing we can all do when things turn upside down)  head into the forest, sit on the mother, find our balance.  (and of course fling some arrows)  :)   my heart goes out to you and i'll miss seeing your posts and your artwork on the tradgang.  this certainly is a good group of folks, you are right about that.

blessing on your journey,

enjoy the day,

There are many men in this world who have never tasted the freedom you are about to enjoy, And even more who have and gave it up and regretfully so, find peace it is beside every blade of grass, Man I miss living off the land,, I wish you well , check in only when you feel like it....Draw lots of blood and eat well....

Vic, we never talked one on one, but I have often read your words.  I hate to see you loose contact with us.  However, I understand what your doing and I wish I had a cabin like that to go to.  Blessed be brother, and keep the wind to your face.

It truly is unfortunate when after so many years together people find different paths in life and go seperate ways.  I haven't been there, and can't pretend to offer guidance, but it sounds as if you know what path you must take for your own happiness.  Often times I have seen people forced to change into something they don't want to be, and that never works out in the end anyway.  Better for you to follow your heart and move forward as best you can.  I am certain there is great sadness during the process, pray that it will pass for you, and hope that you will discover true joy and love in the future.  Good luck my friend.
