A short note from a flatlander who really enjoys your columns and radio shows. As I read or listen to your stories, it strikes me that many times your clients don't always limit out or take a trophy, but they always gain a valuable memory and enjoy Mother Nature. As one who enjoys most forms of outdoor activities and as a Hunter Safety Instructor, I think there's an important message there. Keep talkin' and writin' * Dave Tweet / Conrad, MT

 

Your tales are heartwarming, and I especially enjoy the special relationship you have with your animals * Jo Ellen Wright / Mineral Wells, TX

 

My shop radio is turned to KDMA here in Montevideo. To me, I like the elk call first--then we stop to listen * Dave Schaltz / Montevideo, MN

 

I enjoy your radio program very much. I set my alarm so I can listen to it just before I get up each morning. I've always loved the outdoors and your program makes me feel like I'm right there on your outdoor adventures * Cassandra Syme / Plentywood, MT

 

I sure do enjoy your radio program. I listen to it while driving to work in the mornings. I have two boys that also enjoy listning to your stories * Randy Fie / Monticello, UT

 

We listen every morning for your adventures. I picture in my mind where you are. I admire your wife. Thank you so much for the adventures you take us on * Jerrie Gooodman / Buffalo, WY

 

The stories you tell are so descriptive it's almost like being there--you can just picture it in your mind. Also you have a great sense of humor * Arlene Therriault / Elliston, MT

 

We wake up every morning to the station you broadcast on. We snuggle in bed and listen to your wonderful, warm voice and equally wonderful stories. Thank you for sharing and for starting our day out right * Stan and Shirley
