Two Determined Texas Bird Hunters Go Gunning For A Dream In Oregon

Less than 24 hours after they'd arrived, the Kimbroughs were on a southbound flight. Dick called me at home before they left. "You got to let us give you something for this," he said.

"I don't need anything," I said. "I told your brother that the first time he phoned. You can call up Rob if you want, but I'm pretty sure he feels the same about it. I'm glad it worked out."

"What a day! A lifetime dream come true! We'll never forget it!"

"Mountain quail get you to places you wouldn't go otherwise."

"Did you write that in your article?"

"A guy named Haig-Brown wrote it a longtime ago."

"He was right," Dick said. "By god, he was right. They damn sure do!"
