Thanks to FTA 7B for putting on (again) the biggest trapping convention in the state! Jesse and crew did a good job pulling it off and should be commended.
Sold some videos/Lure, talked/visited with good friends and had fun hanging with Gibb/Debbie, Dave M & betterhalf.... The wife was on good behavior (Alexis)..hehe... and made for a nice day. Thanks to all that stopped over and said high...there isn't a better bunch than ALL of you...I'm proud to call you all friends.
See you soon, or amybe at 7C or 7F this next weekend.....
7C's may be a big/huge event with Ron Cauble selling off alot of his trapping items collected/used over the years this next Sunday.

Bob, you toldme so, Matt didnt make it. ;D We dont hold a business meeting on convention day. Too much other stuff going on. We had a great time, it was good seeing everyone and meeting the Gibb's . Lots of pics coming up in a day or so. My wife had never gone to a trapping meet til this spring, but she is really enjoying it and getting ti know everyone. Thanks to all you guys for making her feel welcome. Her and Alexis are turning into regular troublemakers. ..... in a good way. ;D

3 no shows in a row ,after giving his word. so are you all asking him to demo again next year? not showing, that is inexusable. once maybe ,as stuff happens to all of us, twice, shaky, 3 times is just plain low. I`m sure glad mark june isn`t that way. he said he would come and he did, and drove a loooong way to do it. I talked to him a good bit friday night, and he seems as normal a fellow as you and me. I don`t agree with all his theory, but heck, everyone thinks different. but a mans word is his word and that carrys a lot of weight with me when a man keeps his word . and the same if his word is not good.

no, I think he drinks and is flaky and chases women. that`s all. nicest guy in the world, but if you told him they would kill you if he wasn`t there at 12 noon, he might show up at 3 pm two days later and say, dang, they really did kill him. oh well, gimme a beer. in other words totally undependable and has issues of his own he is fighting. he might be mad at fta too.

reason is a felony conviction keeps a guy off the "recommended trapper list". matt got in some trouble a few years back and coming back to bite him now. not anyone elses fault, esp not fta. but he PROMISED he wouldn`t NO SHOW again, and this was recent , long after him getting mad at fta. and 7b isn`t any way connected to the "recommended trapper" list, that`s none of anyones doings here.
