Midwesterners have probably heard this story, but it is something I think about every year.

Absolutely. Good on you for posting this. Every year there are new waterfowl hunters heading out who have no idea how bad it can get, and how fast it can do so.

I have read that story time and time again. Always amazes me how fast things changed for the worse.
