T. Bredberg

Not many things can render a person such as myself wordless/phraseless when asked to explain something. I’ve been able to describe the feeling and emotions of meeting musicians such as Rascal Flatts to Metallica to meet famous people such as George W Bush to Gen Norman Schwarzkopf. This time is different and putting it exactly into the correct words is harder than expected, so let me put it this way. I, Timothy Earl Bredberg, would like to thank you for everything that was provided on this trip. I’m not talking about the food, the gear, or even the hunt/fish; I’m talking about providing for the people. Six months ago, I was thinking about putting a gun in my mouth and ending it all. I had had enough with being treated like an outsider by everyone. I was tired of feeling alone. Don’t get me wrong I have the most amazing wife and kids, but I was tired of letting them down or at least feeling as though I had. My wife kept reassuring me I hadn’t let her down, but I still felt as though I had. Fast forward a few months to present time and the suicidal thoughts have passed but the thoughts of being alone were still there. I almost called the day of the trip and said I couldn’t come. I am very happy I did! I’m not alone, there are others like me who are wounded who like to hunt/fish to love the outdoors. So, thank you for providing that. It means a lot more than you shall know.
