Re: [VFB] Juicebug Swap Unleashed!
Awesome bugs everyone! Really looking forward to seeing them! Eric Worm Reed City, MI 49677 "And when it all goes well, when your dog does the difficult and does it with style, what you get isn't a bagged bird but the honor of sharing a moment of penultimate drama starring the dog you love and the bird you love. That is a taste of heaven, friends, and it's why the dog man hunts. And frankly, most of us kick through one hell of a lot of weeds between glimpses of Heaven." -Steve Grooms From: Wes Wada To: vfb-mail@googlegroups.com Sent: Tue, January 17, 2012 3:05:22 PM Subject: Re: [VFB] Juicebug Swap Unleashed!

Fwd: [VFB] Juicebug Swap Unleashed!
Back from getting vittles to outlast this snow storm we're getting. Jim, hopefully those flies arrive. May have been delayed by the holiday weekend. I will add the pic to the group when they get here. If they get here today, they'll make it into the swap packages.
