I see that Greg has taken over George Brady's territory as FHA receiving agent (Washington and Idaho). I'm wondering if he's going to be running any routes out west or what the plan is?

I have his number Carl if you want it. PM me

That is interesting. Greg is based in Wisconsin and is busy running the main US depot. Not sure how he will have time to run western routes.

Hopefully his minion(s) have the time?

Do you have different number than the one FHA supplies? I've tried that one a couple of times but not got through.

George’s son in law texted me a couple months ago and told me he was taking over for George if I had any fur to be picked up. I have his number but I didn’t get his name.

^^^From the post he made on here it sounded like he was thinking about taking over for George, but on the FHA US agents list it now shows Greg as the receiving agent for George's old territory.

Maybe its a different guy with the same name.

Nope. The late George Brady's son-in-law goes by Frank the Tank.

To this day- I've never seen a person skin a muskrat faster than Greg

Greg does that when an agent quits or dies. I quit three years ago, and he did that for the states I used to pick up. Was only till he could find a. New agent to take it over!

Wasn’t it a Greg….or Gary Schroeder that was the winning bid on the giant beaver last auction? Thought he was an FHA guy.

B.P -- please let me know what you find out. Lee -- any chances of getting a knife ( i know i am way late)

It was Gary Schroeder that bought that giant beaver. Gary is Greg’s older brother. Gary owns Moscow Hide and Fur.

Lots of fur business connections in that family. 7 brothers, 5 of which were involved in the fur business in some way.

My dad sold to a Schroeder that was buying for Hudson Bay back in the 70's in the U.P.

WissMiss, any word on Jeff?

That was probably Virgil, the oldest brother.

No.

Yessir, fire away! I have some made up ahead, so your golden! Thanks!

I finally caught up with Greg. He's the "default" receiving agent for our area....for the time being. They're hoping that George Brady's son-in-law Frank may take over, but no commitments have been made as of yet. Greg figures something will eventually be worked out. If any trapper in Oregon wants to get some fur up to FHA you might want to check in with me at some point. I may be driving north and east to meet up with a receiving agent before last receiving dates.... might have extra room.
