Bring on the ideas ONE and ALL :)

[Lisa Almquist]

Hi Everyone! I noticed that I'm at post #666 again so I gotta change that or get bad juju for life!! so I was thinking that we don't have a lot of ladies or men for that matter who come on in and share/chat here. Does anyone have any ideas to make this Women's forum more active, fun, exciting (well besides posting racy pics-sorry! )? Anything anyone would like to see changed (Lisa's non-stop chatter?) Seriously, maybe I overchat everyone!!

One idea is that we could have a bio stickied at the top of our forum to introduce ourselves?

Another idea is that ladies who hunt could share more. I've been interested in maybe trying grouse/pheasant hunting but am squeamish and super shy about asking about it (can I be the only one who feels this way?)

Come on let's hear any and all suggestions! Don't be shy....share! (sorry-being cheesy again)

Maybe we need Larry here more often.

I don't post here because I'm not very outdoorsy -- apart from when I'm taking photos -- and even then I'm an expert at rolling down the car window and pressing the shutter button. But I do come and read the posts as I'm sure a lot of other people do.

I had a dream the other day that I went deer hunting for the first time and a bear got me

But I was ok. Do you think thats a sign I shouldnt go deer hunting or maybe I should go bear hunting???

Hey Lisa,

I don't post very often but check in frequently and love to fish. I think your idea about about bios is a good one. It would help us to get to know one another better. I was wondering if there has ever been a women's get together or the possibility of one?

While you are concerned about the bad juju for being at post #666, I was bummed out when I posted the other day under a different area and saw the word "stranger" under my name. I was worried that would scare people off and no one would respond to my post Anyway, thanks for all of the info that you provide.

Wow DeeDee thanks for sharing! We'll have dream sharing posts-that my PERSONAL specialty, "dream assessing"! Deer and bear hunting is huge in MN! There you go! Move back. Take up hunting the big ones. Share. Love it!

And Cheryl, your behind the scenes forum action takes up a lot of your time I'M SURE!

mnfishinggal,

I sure wish I had given way more thought on my forum name. Yours is awesome. I really want to be known as Walleyespecialistchick or something grand like that!

LOVE the women's get together idea. Let's get some ideas on where? I'll get on the bios sticky today.

Don't feel bad about being a stranger. BTW, you're not the only person out there with that under your name. With all the forum changes we'll all get our normal titles again really soon. Mine is not right either. You're not scaring people off in the least. I think you're posts are great.

ANY MORE IDEAS ANYONE??!!

[glenn57]

lisa, the bio idea sounds good but cant you see there bio when you click on there name to the left of the posts? i do it often and most dont tell alot, albeit there choice.

[glenn57]

oh by the way im still waiting for that fish picture. maybe you could sweet talk mr. lisatealz to use one of his. hehehe haha.

[Lisa Almquist]

Hey! I CAN catch fish. But my pics are scary. cause the fish are so big!

[Lisa Almquist]

So there glenn!!! She's kinda skinny. I mean the fish!!

[glenn57]

ok,ok you done got me. im not computer literate enough to put on pictures yet. ill have to have my wife do it some day. nice fish.

[Lisa Almquist]

I'm pretty new at this posting pics business-lots of mistakes and I don't quit until I get it right!

Well. I hate to be pounding the same drum, but you all are welcome to come to a meeting of the Minnesota Lady Slippers. We're the only all-women chapter of Pheasants Forever. We have monthly meetings and we're trying something new this year by having a guest speaker. The last one got snowed out and so we're trying to decide if we want to re-schedule with that person or go with the next one on the list. I'll let you know as soon as we nail it down.

The other thing you could do is come to Pheasant Fest in Saint Paul next weekend. Most of us from PF Headquarters are going to be working so stop and say Hi if you get a chance. There's going to be a ton of seminars. Check the list out at

http://www.pheasantsforever.org/page/1/PheasantFest.jsp

There's going to be a parade of hunting dogs at noon on Friday in downtown St. Paul. People really had fun with that last year in De Moinse. Too bad we couldn't do it in the skyway - someone was afraid of a mess. Hope to meet some of you down there.

Hi Diane! Thank you for keeping us informed of your Pheasants Forever chapter events. It's good info to have for anyone that is interested! I personally cannot attend next weekend, I have a date with Lake Winnie!!
