I’d gladly send you some money to ship me a few my way.

Went to High School in Darlington, and can't honestly say I've ever been to Potosi.

Depending on how old you are we may have bumped into each other if you made it to Hazel Green.

@johnp aren’t you from that area?

My place is about 25 miles north of Potosi. Makes for a nice afternoon to visit the brewery eat at the bar , get on the Cassville ferry cross the Mississippi and make the loop back up through Iowa. Beautiful country that is !

87, I was born in Cuba City and Platteville was the girl boundary for us…if we didn’t get run out of town

We sniffed around Platteville plenty. One time with a friend at a party in Plattville, his car lost all gears but reverse. Later that night, a guy came up to us and said "I know you guys . You're Darlington in reverse!" Then walk off laughing his butt off.

My great great grandfather left Casssville in 1876 to come to South Dakota. My wife and I visited the area 6 years ago. Really neat country.

If Stocker already has them in the mail to me I’ll grab a couple and send to you.

Thanks, he still had one left and was sending it to me.

25 miles north? That’s like Lu lu’s bar in patch grove. This is the last weekend for the ferry.

I'm just a few miles down in the holler from LuLu's and Home a Gins in Mt Hope. This week I am trying to do justice to an Iowa archery tag . Mixed results so far.

Should have come across the ferry this weekend - I was working at the winery (Promiseland) and would have bought you a drink.

I live on the Iowa side so I wouldn’t have had to cross the ferry. We were not far from there as I had to go to Dyersville. I used to deer hunt off the road to the ferry. One of the biggest white tails I have saw was in that swamp. I hunted the hell out of him but to no avail. I’d imagine he was pushed off the surrounding bluff by hunters and wasn’t down there long.

Hunting all public . You are probably familiar with all of the areas I have done my scouting.
So far I have seen deer most times I've sat . Looking forward to the next couple weeks and hopefully celebrating with a cold Potosi beer!
