What is this all about
Simply, it is about my journey and sharing the Gospel. It will be a place to bring non-believers and believers together to Love one another, share, and Support one another, and do so on the common ground of the outdoor work God has given us, be it Camping, Fishing, Homesteading, or just sitting around a campfire cooking a meal.
My name is Kevin Blackburn. I am the guy behind Leeson Outdoors. First, the name Leeson Outdoors came about while brainstorming with my wife. It is in honor of my father, who first introduced me to the outdoors, hunting, fishing, camping, survival, etc. His middle name was LEE, and I am his son, so LEESON.
