Dear Cass, I starting smiling today while driving to work. I began recreating images from our last hunt. We have been hunting with you for four years. Every year brings the promise of cold days on the prairie with our dogs, my sons, and your guides, all working together to find the pheasants which seem to love the fields in Republic County. We have never been disappointed. We have been with you enough that the feeling on the way out is we are going to see family and hunt. When it came time to bury Missy, we scattered her ashes in your field, the scene of her last hunt, complete with snow, tight sitting birds and a cold north wind. Czechland  fulfills whatever promises you made early on to set up a quality spot to hunt upland birds. I look forward to next fall with all of the anticipation that begins to build in the spring after the last winter hunt is done. Thanks. Ken
