My friends and family know that my long trips are a part of who I am and they are very supportive. Buck Publishing, my business, is now mainly what I do for a living. Sounds like Tim and I have a lot in common. There are lots of photos of my various adventures on my website: <a rel="nofollow">www.bucktrack.com</a><br /><br />Have a good day!<br /><br />BuckBuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15968411775993981986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15465453.post-40811347925993349222010-01-21T13:23:07.450-09:002010-01-21T13:23:07.450-09:00I just heard you on Catholic Radio this morning an...I just heard you on Catholic Radio this morning and I was wondering if you are a Catholic and if so, what part hs your Faith played in all the adventures you have been on? Do you have a family, and again, if so, how do they deal with you being gone so much? Is this your way of earning a living at this time?<br /><br />Sorry for so many questions... I am from northern MN and was facinated that you were a forester who attended the U of M, as is my husband, Tim Capistrant, and then went on to be a smoke jumper, which he thought of doing, but we have seven children and it was not a good fit. He did serve 15 years in the guaards, though.<br /><br />Christ's peace,<br /><br />Judy<br />PS Any pictures available.Judyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05477541734518550697noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15465453.post-91838352374028276322009-02-10T07:34:00.000-09:002009-02-10T07:34:00.000-09:00I fought fire for several years for the State of M...I fought fire for several years for the State of Minnesota, Forest Service, and Bureau of Land Management. I talked to smokejumpers, worked hard, got good recommendations and put in an application.<BR/><BR/>The first step in smokejumping is definitely getting wildland firefighting experience.<BR/><BR/>Good luck!<BR/><BR/>BuckBuckhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15968411775993981986noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-15465453.post-74655287309392846562009-02-10T06:18:00.000-09:002009-02-10T06:18:00.000-09:00How did you get into smoke jumping?I am a 20 yr ol...How did you get into smoke jumping?<BR/><BR/>I am a 20 yr old male looking to do smoke jumping to increase my chances to get into the fire dept.<BR/><BR/>Please if you have any information or advice let me know<BR/><BR/>evanchristensen@live.caAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
