Looking forward to going to this, one of my very favorite conventions. It will be at the fairgrounds in Bland, Virginia, exit 52 off I-77.

Sterling Fur will be making a run down there to drop off supplies Friday morning. If anyone needs something from them, let them know. Murray will be there with a full line of trapping supplies. If you need something specific from them, you might want to contact Mike ahead of time to make sure he brings it.

Friday night is the potluck dinner. It's always well attended. No doubt because of all the delicious foods that are there. This year I'll have a smoked salmon cheese ball and a big pot of beaver stew.

Come on to the convention for a great time with friendly folks.

We had a great time yesterday got some of the vendors setup and for dinner last night bear stew and banana pudding and pumpkin rolls. I'm getting ready to head back over this morning to get everything rolling we have alot planned for today. So load up some friends and head to Bland Virginia and get those last minute supplies and pick up a few tricks for this coming season.

VA put on another successful convention. Thanks to all who made this work. I know there's lots of work involved and y'all need a big pat on the back for a job well done. I had a great time and look forward to going back next year.

Virgiginia trappers are fortunate to have Travis working hard on their behalf protecting and promoting trapping. Recognition of that is a well deserved award. Congratulations Travis!

Had a blast at the convention as always. Congrats to Travis. I also got to meet Hal Sullivan who I’ve been reading in magazines since I was a young man. My wife also had her yearly skeeter pee shot with Mr. Dobbins. Eric

Where are the pictures?


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.
