Late winter is the time of year when I think about the trips that Maine Outdoors offers. Which ones to drop and what to add that is new different and interesting. As part of that effort I have been working with someone writing ad copy for my ads. Hearing someone else’s perspective is always interesting but in the case of Maine Outdoors it is a perspective on something that I have created, nurtured and built over the last twenty six years.
We live in an area made up of dairy farms, blueberry fields and woodlots along with lots of bodies of water. Because of the farms the early stockings of wild turkeys took place here thirty years ago. Turkeys had been extirpated from Maine long before and the reintroduction was an experiment at the time.
Over the years I have often written about how much snow we get here in Union from any particular storm. Watching the 
traffic that comes to Maine Outdoors to view those pages there is definitely an interest in that information. There are resources available online that I think would be a little more useful than my best guess about the amount of snow we got.
