Vermont Deer Season 2009 Firearm Deer Season opens this coming Saturday 14 November 2009, and goes through to the 29th of November 2009 .

Seeing that we have many homes for sale near and even in the woods, and seeing lots of folks enjoy going out in to the woods near their homes. And seeing that Vermont hunters are able to hunt in just about any woods in the State. I'd like ask that Home Buyers, Real Estate Agents, and all those that enjoy going out into the woods of Vermont, please use Caution at this time of year. You just may want to think about wearing some kind of Hunter Orange clothing when your going to be near the woods.

Being a hunter myself, it sure makes me sad to have to say this. But the truth of it is, there are some hunters, that just don't think once they get out into the woods!

Vermont Deer Season 2009 Now I'd sure like to ask all my fellow hunters to use the Rules For Safe Hunting, when your out in the woods.

• Control the muzzle of your firearm. It should be pointed in a safe direction at all times. Treat every firearm as if it were losded!

• Be sure of your target and look beyond, before you ever raise your firearm or draw your bow.

• Wear hunter orange to make yourself more visible to other hunters. Never assume you are alone in the woods.
  

Although the State of Vermont dose not require us to wear Hunter Orange, but the State of Vermont dose Urge us to wear Hunter Orange Recommendation.


Vermont Deer Season 2009, Just one hunting rrelated shooting is too many. No matter how rare, each incident casts hunting in a bad light by reinforcing the perception that hunting is dangerous. So the Vermont Fish and Wildlife Department dose strongly urges us hunters to include some fluorescent Hunter Orange clothing with our other essential gear. The recommendation is especially important when hunting Deer and Bear.

Remember hunting is very safe, but it could be even safer if all hunters wore a hunter orange vest and hat. Do you really want to be the only hunter in the woods not wearing hunter orange.

Hunt smart, and please always think safety!

Please remember for your safty and the safty of others, that Alcoholic beverages or any other kind of mood altering drugs, has no business at all being in the woods, when hunting!

Be sure you positively identify your target, and beyond, before you shoot!

Just Cuz It'll Go Down Yer Gullet Doesn't Mean Ya Oughta Put It Down Yer Popes!, Fats, Oils, and Greases are not just bad for your arteries and waistline, these things are also very bad for your private Septic System or public Sewer System.

Just where dose grease come from?

Most of us know grease as the byproduct of cooking. But grease is also found in such things as: Meat fats, lard, cooking oil, shortening, butter and margarine, food scraps, baking goods, sauces, and dairy products. Too often, folks wash grease into the home's plumbing system, usually through the kitchen sink. Grease sticks to the insides of sewer pipes, both on your property and in the streets. Over time, the grease can very will build up and block the entire pipe.

Just Cuz It'll Go Down Yer Gullet Doesn't Mean Ya Oughta Put It Down Yer Pipes!, your home garbage disposals dose not keep grease out of your plumbing system. These units only shred solid material into smaller pieces and do not prevent grease from going down the drain. Commercial additives, including detergents, that claim to dissolve grease may very will just pass the grease down the line and end up causing problems in other areas.

The results could very will be:

• An increase in operation and maintenance costs for your local sewer department, which ends up causing higher sewer bills for customers.

A Safe Water Supply, a safe water supply sure is critical to protecting publie health, is the first obligation of all water suppliers. Without the modern water systems, diseases such as cholera and dysentery would be part of our everyday life.
