[mou] free duck stamp

2007-10-16 Thread Jim Williams

2007-10-16 Thread Dedrick Benz
John Hockema has been faithfully keeping my idiotic goal alive, of trying to add at least one bird to each of my 87 Minnesota County lists. Nervous about adding to my already semirespectable totals in Lake and Cook, we decided to head north for a 3-day extravaganza along the shore. My persona
