Hey, Bend, Oregon! I have a niece and a nephew there, and their folks just moved there last summer.

Our season here in New Hampshire opens next Saturday, 10/01. I took my Llewellin out today in a new cover that I have been wanting to check out for years. Within ten minutes we were into Woodcock. Five points and three birds flushed. Come on Saturday!!!

Phil;

Bend used to be a great place to live when I was a kid and there were only ten thousand people here the two big mills and several smaller ones kept people in beans and deer hunting and fishing, the best you could hope for, supplied the meat. Now we boast that we have nearly eighty-one thousand no mills and the fishing and hunting are poor at best. So much for progress. We meet many people that want to move here but we tell them they had better bring lots of money as a small house will set them back $350,000 to $500,000 the taxes are high and the wages low.


Fred;

I knew Louie Selkin, nice guy, he was voted out because he didn't know how to run a good campaign for office. We've had several since him some pretty good some not so. Sorry I don't remember you, I was with Bend P.D. for twenty-five years, retired in 1999.
