My Hometown

The first stop in my Travel Blog series has to be my hometown of Portsmouth, Ohio, Scioto County, USA.  The word “Scioto”, is a Wyandot Native American word for Deer, of which we still have in ample supply. The area is a true deer hunters paradise, whether you shoot with a camera or otherwise. ThisContinue reading “My Hometown”
