What lead to a career of 35 years with Minnesota Department of Natural Resources, Section of Fisheries and my love and passion for the outdoors?
I still remember walking to my country school in first and second grade and watching the grasshoppers fly off as I walked along the road shoulder. I remember the buzz of cicadas and the sight of garter snakes wiggling out of my way.
I will never forget my third grade book report on the hammerhead shark and how amazed I was that such a creature really existed. That report opened a whole new underwater world for me. The ocean’s and all their mystery and splendid beauty were awe-inspiring and still are today.
In seventh grade, I never missed an episode of the American Sportsman on television. Incredible pheasant and quail hunting trips with Bing Crosby and Phil Harris, who seemed to love being together outdoors and would make up musical lyrics and melodies during their adventures. I also loved episodes of Curt Gowdy and his trout fishing escapades. Wen asked to do a book report on my hero or favorite personality, Bing Crosby, the outdoorsman, was the obvious subject (sorry mom and dad).
It was also in seventh grade, when I completed my firearms safety course and could finally go duck hunting with my dad and two older brothers. Those early mornings I discovered - the smells of autumn leaves, coffee, and gunpowder; the sound’s of whistling wings and the chatter of winged ghosts and wood calls; cold breaths like smoke that faded into the mist; and the art of setting out homemade black 2x4 decoys.
How can I ever forget climbing through railroad culverts to get to spring holes in the ice full of mooneyes on Pigseye Lake. Trapping muskrats with my brother and muskrats, mink, and fox with my uncle, who thought he knew how to dispatch a skunk caught in a leg-hold trap with a stout pole. Know what it’s like riding in a car, windows down, with pipe smoke and an uncle saturated with one of the most wondrous odors in life?
Other memories early in life are of weekend adventures to my uncles’ island in northern Minnesota where I could seemingly walk forever along shore and fish. On rare occasions, mom and dad would let me take the wooden rowboat out fishing, always within sight. And then there were trolling adventures with dad, his pockets always overflowing with caramels and candies. Why does exhaust from a 1957 Johnson 5 horsepower outboard motor smell so good. Later in life, it was at Lake Vermillion, where I recreated my own American Sportsman episodes duck, deer, and roughed grouse hunting and fishing. Fishing skills were honed at Farm Island Lake where largemouth bass were teased from their vegetative mats.
So a career in some natural resources field seemed inevitable, a fisheries career was the given path. And as my career advanced and I continued to witness the amazing bounty, beauty, mystery, and loss of the natural resources I so love, it became my dedication.

Epilogue
It shouldn’t be a surprise that all three sons have the same love and passion for the outdoors and have each obtained Wildlife and Fisheries degrees (even a Masters and PhD). I had a long, successful, and rewarding career, but my sons are my proud legacy. Thanks to mom and dad Sundmark and Hancock, hammerhead sharks, and the American Sportsman with Bing Crosby, Phil Harris, and Curt Gowdy.

When the Bible states we are gods of the earth, I felt this truth during my encounter with Lord Meduza, the spell master. I’m Denzel Chau and I’m here to present the individual who transformed my life from poverty to becoming a multimillionaire Jackpot victor. I reached out to Lord Meduza for assistance with winning numbers and he successfully helped me after casting a lottery spell for me. I utilized the numbers to enter the Jackpot lottery and I was announced as the winner of $368,000,000. Acquiring the numbers from Lord Meduza took 72 hours and I want to express my gratitude publicly to him for his remarkable service to humanity and for deciding to assist me during my life’s lowest moment. Not everyone is meant to win the lottery, but with the assistance of Lord Meduza, you can achieve it. To reach him today, drop a message to his email: lordmeduzatemple@hotmail.com or Whats-App +1 807-798-3042 . To learn more about his works, go to his website at: lordmeduzatemple.com

My son was suffering from Epilepsy. The neurologist was very confident about the diagnosis based, my Son had an EEG (no idea if it showed anything; we were tired and may have misunderstood what he said about that). MRI was negative for problems. For the past 7 months or so, I have seen weekly occurrences, making strange faces (this involved cheek twitching and lip quivering). We did not realize it could be a serious problem until she had an obvious seizure (simple partial) last week. What is troubling about my daughter condition is that we have seen many daytime seizures, and that recently the seizures seem to cluster together. No idea if there are seizures occurring at night. We were given a prescription for Kapra, but are still weighing the risk / rewards of giving the medication to a toddler. After returning from the hospital, my daughter experienced a round a vomiting lasting from 3 AM to 11 AM, followed by additional vomiting the following morning at around 2 AM. Nothing sense then. She has not had an appetite, is drinking fine, and otherwise appears healthy. I read a lot of blogs where people who shared their testimonies kept mentioning Anti-seizure Herbal medication. I searched for a website I just followed the email address of Healing Herbs that was shared on these testimonies; I got lucky when I got a reply from Healing Herbs. I followed his instruction, used Herbal Medicine in less than 2 months, my daughter seizures reduced drastically. Within a period of 5 months, my daughter was cured. I went back to my neurologist, where my son checked up and marked epilepsy free. If you need his help you can Contact this herbal doctor via her WhatsApp +2348165097113

AI has caused me more problems than it has solved. I was connected to a cryptocurrency trader through AI and lost my hard-earned money to a scam. If it weren’t for the assistance of Lord Meduza, whom my sister-in-law recommended to me, I wouldn’t have been able to win the $435 MILLION Mega Millions Lottery. My life could have taken a drastic turn due to the overwhelming bills I faced after being cheated by the crypto traders. Lord Meduza utilized his extraordinary spell powers to determine the perfect six numbers I needed to win the Mega Millions Lottery, and I followed his instructions to play those numbers. I am incredibly thankful for the support, love, and kindness he has shown, which is beyond measure.
