Copyright © 2013. 4 glo janurary 2013 P.S. from the editor dear glo “Just wanted to thank you for including my painting in the November issue of glo. I have had such fun with it. I have heard from people that I hadn't heard from for a long time; I’m so blessed. I really enjoyed the articles in the December issue. The articles were very well written. I mailed a copy to my friend in North Carolina and my friend in Florida. My painting keeps me busy and thinking and God helps me through my troubles. Thanks again.” – Sherry Rorick “Hello, I always enjoy glo very much, except until this hunting article. I have to keep the picture covered! Beautiful little girl, holding up the head of a beautiful dead deer. Yes, one can say they are with nature; God provided us the means for the food; we need to cull the herds, etc. I can't be convinced how a beautiful deer can be killed and "be with nature" despite using it for food. I grew up on a farm; my dad was a hunter. Hated it then, hate it now. And I even ended up on a rifle team in high school but could never shoot at an animal. Dating a hunter wasn't an option either. The farm animals were all my friends, could never raise and show an animal in 4-H that would end up on someone's plate. Would have felt like a traitor. One can argue there are too many deer. Yes, there are, but we are moving more and more into their territory. I became a vege- ow that the holiday rush is winding down, if not all but tarian in high school, and so far my kids are vegetarian.
