| Deer Hunting | |||||
|
|
Whitetail Deer that any hunter
would be proud to mount on his den wall (or take pictures of which is what
I like to do) can be found right in the back
yard. Or you can walk to the Hoosier National Forest and the Corps of
Engineers wildlife area that surrounds the lake and enjoy bird watching and
just being alone in nature. This is a outdoorsman's
paradise!
