Thank you on behalf of all the K9 teams we support for your donation of copies of BLUE’s Travel & Adventure issue for our October Care Packages. The magazines will be a perfect accompaniment to our theme of “Michigan: Mayhem and Music (Strumming Around the Campfire).” They will be a huge hit with the handlers! We are grateful for your generosity to these brave men and women who are deployed with their dogs to protect other soldiers.

Jerry Dennis
A renowned Michigan author and BLUE’s Reflections columnist, Dennis lives near Traverse City, where he gets away with calling his fishing, hunting, canoeing, birding and beach walking “research.” Uncover what he’s discovered at jerrydennis.net.
Gary W. Odmark
Renowned for his realistic portrayals of the Great Lakes, Odmark provides illustrations for BLUE’s State of Mine and At The Helm in this issue. The prolific Holland-based artist’s fine- quality limited edition prints and originals in oils, watercolors and acrylics can be viewed at gwodmark.com.
Jon Osborn
When Osborn isn’t chasing after his kids, he’s probably knee deep in a northern trout stream or following his English setter through an alder stand in search of woodcock. Osborn is grateful to live and write in a region with so many outdoor opportunities. He contributes to a variety of publications and authored the book, “Classic Michigan Flies — 16 Legendary Patterns.” classicmichiganflies.com
