ASK A TROOPER
Question: I really liked your recent article about the dangers of putting your feet up on the dash while driving and air bags. With the way vehicles are changing, can you talk about the other air bags, like side curtains and such? Thank you.
Violet’s Floyd
It was the twelfth of May, it was warm out, the grass was green, and folks had already been mowing it when36 inches of snow fell on the banks of the Pipestone River. Floyd left home at 7 a.m. in a canoe on its maiden voyage up to their Marsh Lake Cabin 14 miles away to meet his brother Frank. On the way he checked traps and picked up 18 beaver and at least 40 muskrats. He skinned nine of the beaver on the riverbank. He testified that it took him about nine minutes to skin a medium sized beaver and about 15 minutes for a large one.

@ Your Library
The year just keeps chugging along. Here we are past the middle of June. I have done some reading this year, but I think I’ve added more titles to my “to read” list than my ‘read’ list. But that is what tends to happen every year. I would love for magic to exist and to be able to create an extra two-hour block of the day that no one knew existed and I could just read.
