  • Louis L’Amour, Ray Polly
    October, 2010
    American author Louis L’Amour was born in North Dakota, where he lived until the age of 15, at which point he decided to explore the country as a nomad. Living off of odd jobs, L’Amour eventually settled in Los Angeles as a laborer at the local seaport. L’Amour eventually became a merchant seaman, which allowed him to travel around the world. L’Amour’s first novel, Westward The Tide, was published in 1951 by World’s Work. Later that decade, L’Amour was hired by Bantam Books to write Western novels under contract. L’Amour started out producing two novels each year, which later increased to three novels a year. Throughout his career, L’Amour wrote 89 novels of which more than 200 million copies have been sold. Mr. Ray Polly is a dedicated fan of Louis L’Amour and especially enjoys his 1973 novel The Quick and the Dead. One of L’Amour’s most well-received novels, The Quick and the Dead follows loner Con Vallian as he helps the McKaskels, an Eastern family new to the prairie that fight back against a band of ruthless outlaws. After stopping for coffee at the strangers’ campfire, Vallian is roped into guiding them across the prairie and keeping them safe not only from local hustlers, but also from hostile Native Americans. A prolific and influential Western author, Louis L’Amour received multiple awards during his career, including the Presidential Medal of Freedom, the Roughrider Award, and the Congressional Gold Medal.
  • Camping Tips: Part 2, Ray Polly
    November, 2010
    We have assembled more camping and wilderness survival tips that will help make your next camping expedition more enjoyable. 1. Try to keep your hands free for climbing, balance, and work. Instead of carrying around a flashlight or lantern, wear a headlamp. 2. In need of a delicious beverage that doubles as ice? Buy juice, freeze it in plastic bags, and place it in your cooler to keep food and drinks warm. When the bags thaw, drink the juice to rejuvenate yourself. 3. If you are running short on cash to use for camping equipment, there are often plenty of materials around the house that make for excellent equipment. For example, old shower curtains are excellent as tarps to place under your tent. 4. You should always have certain supplies such as a cell phone, a flashlight, spare batteries, and a watch in case of emergencies. Some might say such measures are not employed by true survivalists, but it is better to be safe than sorry when you are far civilization. 5. Scrub your hands and clothes with baking soda after you eat. The baking soda will remove the scent of food from your clothes and body, which should keep predators such as bears away.
