February-a month for the ladies!

February could easily be dubbed "Ladies Month," at least for this year. That's because today is Valentine's Day, typically a day that seems to have more meaning for the female population than the male set.
   Don't get me wrong, I enjoy Valentine's Day like many other men. In fact my wife prepares a very nice, elegant, tasty, and picture-perfect, Valentine breakfast for the two of us each year.
   The other reason This month and especially this year could be called one for the ladies has to do with the Department of Natural Resources and Environment (DNRE) Becoming an Outdoors Women (BOW) Feb. 25-27 at Big Bay in the Upper Peninsula. The program is for women 18 and older.
   Participants will learn to cross country ski, build fires, ice fish, tie flies, first aid in the outdoors and other skills-14 in all.
   The registration deadline is passed but there still may be openings. Call (517) 241-2255 or visit www.michigan.gov/bow for more information about this event and future BOW opportunities.
   Happy Valentine's Day!
