We still have all the blue laws in place here.

We also have a huge deer problem, to the point that they are destroying the natural "structure" of the woodlands by eating off all the young native species and leaving all the invasives. Natural succession is being circumvented. I understand how serious this is -- I see it everywhere.

That said, I do like to be able to go outside one day a week. We have always allowed hunters on our land and have a good relationship with them. But I think it's fair that the non-hunters have a chance to get outside and enjoy the woods every so often during hunting season (which is very long).

Perhaps if hunting season were shorter, this would not be a problem. I doubt that the hunters would want this. I breathe a sigh of relief every Sunday as I step outside.
