    The friend of the friend does not attend our church, but how I met the individual that is going to help me with the hunt is through our volunteering with our monthly food bank drives through the church. Thank you for the suggestion, though: I understand where you are coming from with that and...

    Thanks, Yukon Cornelius! I'm gathering from everyone's responses that money is not the way to go to show my appreciation for others' generosity, :-D I was raised to write thank-you notes and such anytime kind gestures or gifts were given to me, and I guess I had just assumed that since I don't...

    Hunting Etiquette

    This post inspired me: I ended up buying the friend that will be guiding me a big coffee table book with beautiful photographs and a history of the American Bison. He seems to have an interest in bison, and jokingly calls me "Buffalo Hunter" instead of my name, so I think it will be a more...

    MuleyFever, The gentleman is in his early 70's, and a book is really a fantastic idea! I also spend some time with his wife at the church, so I may be able to glean some of his interests/wishes/needs from her as well. Thank you for helping me think outside the box on this!

    MuleyFever, Thanks for the insight. I considered not even making this post, but I'm incredibly glad that I did after all -- you guys have helped to prevent me from insulting the people to whom I am trying to show gratitude and respect! Thank you so much!

    I appreciate your response, but I must say that unless I know an individual personally, I don't generally give alcohol as a gift, as I don't want to tempt someone I don't know that may have a problem with alcohol to begin with. (But otherwise, my family lives in Kentucky and a lot of people...

    Thanks for your response, 180ls1! I agree that they seem to be doing this from their own generosity, which is why I am fearful I'd give too little and come across insulting. Thanks for your ideas!

    A Question RE: Wyoming Preference Points

    Wow! What a small world! I have never been to Europe, but I have done a little research into the St. Hubertus Mass and St. Hubertus hunts in southern Belgium. (I currently reside in Kalaupapa, HI, by inspiration of St. Damien, who is from Belgium.) I'd love to visit the Ardennes forest...

    A Question RE: Wyoming Preference Points

    I hope you're able to find a government job in Wyoming soon and regain that residency status! What you mentioned about Alaska residency as it pertains to hunting is interesting. I've recently heard that the state is trying to close that loophole in their laws. As a matter of fact, it looks...

    A Question RE: Wyoming Preference Points

    My apologies if I am posting this on the wrong board, or if this has been discussed previously (I've searched, but haven't found this particular question asked/answered.) I am currently a resident of Hawai'i, but I lived previously in Wyoming for 10 years. This year, I applied for Non-Resident...
