Got a call from the Grand Forks Herald for an interview. There is a little hope for this country maybe after all. Pro trapping and Hunting News making a comeback.

Always nice to see someone in a section other than jail dockets or obituaries!

I also went to Bottineau for college.


swampgas chili and schmidt beer makes for a deadly combo

You have to remember that 1 out of 3 Democratic Voters is just as dumb as the other two.

Thanks everyone. It was a great turnout. Not many questions though and lasted 2 1/2 hours. Heading back home now. Get tired of being down here pretty quick. Was nice to see some family and friends but after about 3 days, i'm ready to come home. I heard the river is freezing up too so trapping has been on my mind.
