Looks like you are ready to go and I was really happy to see that someone is looking out for you on the fur market.  With her working for you the season will be good even if you don't catch anything.

they make great free beaver boards, but this year they will be fire wood because we are going to a oval pattern instead of round

I had a feeling you'd say that, but when I seen the hoops I doubted myself. :wo:
They are worth more ovaled anyway, arent they?

from what i have heard that at the Canada auction they are measured by computer in square inches, but they prefer them to be oval.  So if the buyer wants them oval ill make them oval, and next year if they want them square ill make them...... oval   lol I'm not changing no more  :alscalls:

Also, where do you go for one of those huge smart phones your assistant is using?
Good luck - looking fwd to seeing some pics.

Just got back in the house. I ended the day with 5 coon and 26 muskrats
The 12 was opening day for our trapping season but you couldn't set a trap till lunch so I didn't get a lot of sets out .

I'm going to try to have some pics tomorrow
