Starting Out Young

by Mac Moad

Tanner Colten Moad, 5 years old, is one of the coolest kids I know. The youngest of 4 children of mine, Tanner never stops moving.
Before gun season in central eastern Oklahoma, the traditional bow season usually takes priority. I had taken the first week of bow season off from work in an attempt to tag out early at the request of my wife Lori.

Please attend and give your testimony to support the Legislature in defining the current population and status of wolves in Idaho, a condition of emergency.

Rex Rammell, candidate for Idaho Governor, in an email exchange about this bill, told me, “I would love to have this resolution in hand as Idaho’s governor. I would declare an emergency and order wolves killed!”

Plan to attend this meeting. It sounds like it could be very interesting, in addition that it is an extremely important bill that relates to many, many Idaho citizens.
