I remember this quiz! Hmm, did I guess? If not those are exactly the answers I would have said! LOL! Ok, maybe I wouldn't have guessed Wilson as the Ivory Billed Woodpecker trouble maker!
Hi, Patrick,
Thanks for stopping by my site.
I'm always eager for helpful input--seems I come across many things I'm unsure about.
Hope you'll swing by from time to time!
Thank you, thank you!! I accept this book on behalf of all the little people I stepped on to get here!!
Really, thanks, it is a great book!
