smerchly Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 Cleaning up the garage today , found a big box full of fishing/hunting mags. There are over 100 Ontario Out of doors & Outdoors Canada & a few Real Fishing , plus about 20 Cottage Life . If anyone wants some reading for those stormy days of winter , pm me .....I hate to toss them out if someone could use them ....... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coyotehunter Posted December 5, 2012 Report Share Posted December 5, 2012 I had several hundred to give away at a summer garage sale earlier this year. Couldn't get rid of them until a woman wanted some for her father in a retirement home. She said he couldn't get out due to heath issues but still liked to read about it. It reminded him of the old days afield. That got me thinking and gave the rest to a couple of retirment places along with a lot of National Geographics and non fiction books. Apparently reading material is always welcome at the places I visited. Maybe you could investigate that possibility and maybe give another old fart some pleasure.

smerchly Posted December 6, 2012 Author Report Share Posted December 6, 2012 That's a good idea ! There's plenty of homes for the aged , like Linhaven etc , that may take them . The Cottage Life books are great to read also .I only get Ont.Out of Doors now (household downsizing & restructuring) When I went to get my beak fixed , there was two old mags in the room for 8 others to share . They could use some ! lol I'll hang on to them till the weekend and if no takers here , I'll call the homes . Thanks for that great idea . Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you would like some or all you can pick them up here , or I can deliver them to you at your home or put them in my van and meet at Port whenever you will be there to do some trout fishing .
