I'm happy for Tim and Nancy to have more time for things they want to do. John 14:6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me."

If the Cavens chose this business arrangement with Luke, then he must be a stand up guy and I look forward to doing business with them. I have nothing clever to put here.

I've been a customer for over 40 years and truly value their friendship and the way they've always operated their business. Have a great time in retirement and God bless. 57 years trapping. It's who I am. Every day is still as exciting as it was when I was a kid but a little more work.

I took a few minutes to check out the new Minnesota Trapline Website and found it to be outstanding for ease of use and packed with clear and useful information. Simply put one of the best looking website out there. i wish the venture the best of luck.
