As far as I was concerned the whole thing about getting pulled off the interstate and having to allow them to seach my vehicle because I was a hunter was not right. They had taken over a rest area and had at least three big army tents set up to work out of.

The whole situation started off on a bad note when the guy came up with his clipboard with an attitude from the get go. I had to give him my drivers licence and wanted everyone hunting licences. He only got mine as the other guys licences were packed in there hunting clothes.

He left and then the nice guys [peons] came up and wanted to look in the back of my van. I told them the could go ahead and search if they wanted but to remember where it was so they could repack it. This is when the fed officer took off with the dream catcher.

The peons were nice guys and wanted to know if I just wanted to wait for the dog. I asked " Meat sniffing dog or drug dog?" They just chuckled. We stood around for 10 minutes before the fed guy came back with the dreamcatcher. He knew that even if they were canada goose feathers, which they were not positive of, they couldn't prove wild over domestic and he admitted that. He was really an OK guy in Nebraska from Georgia just to work this operation.

After the drug dog got done sniffing I was oked to go. I saw the jerk with the clipboard watching intently so I made sure I shook all the peons hands and tipped my hat to him as I was getting in the van. He looked ticked off and that is what I wanted.
