Gary called Randy and said, “I can bring my boat, and we can make it out to Ossabaw on Wednesday and get camp set up. Warren is going to ride with me.” Randy responded, “This is our 15th trip to the island in 30 years. I really look forward to this every time we are…
National Park Lands Are Not For Hunter Friendly Dear GON, John Trussell is right on target in outlining the concerns with the proposed Preserve in middle Georgia.
