A Vermont man, who was hunting during Maine\’s muzzleloader season, went missing Monday, according to the Maine Dept. of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife. Luckily, he was found alive by a snowmobiler Wednesday on Jackson Mountain near Madrid. The location was outside of the 5-mile search zone.

At least 26 game wardens, seven Forest Service rangers, three canine units and nine volunteers from the Maine Association for Search and Rescue had been conducting the search. Two aircraft and two helicopters — one from the Maine Forest Service and one from the Maine Army National Guard based in Bangor, took to the skies when weather permitted.

Steven Wright, 53, of Woodford, Vt., an experienced hunter, was picked up by the snowmobiler, Donald Eisenhaur, 68, of Madrid. He had set out Monday on a deer track near Tumbledown Mountain and Byron, during a snowstorm that dumped 15 inches of snow in the area.

Wright was airlifted late Wednesday afternoon to Central Maine Medical Center in Lewiston and was in stable condition. According to Lt. Patrick Dorian of the Maine Warden Service, the hunter endured an \”incredible story of survival.\” As darkness set in Monday night, Mr. Wright was lost and told game wardens that he decided to keep walking to stay warm. He fell into a water hole and was submerged up to his neck, got out and continued to walk.

Tired, his clothes freezing on him, Mr. Wright eventually climbed in a ditch and covered himself with spruce thicket in an attempt to stay warm. The search began on Tuesday morning after his two hunting companions reported him missing Monday night. He didn\’t turn up that day.

On Wednesday morning he stayed on a roadway, hoping that he\’d be found. In the middle of the afternoon, Wright became thirsty, left the road and walked into a gully to get a drink of water. At that time, Eisenhaur drove by on his snowmobile.

Wright heard the snowmobile engine and became upset. His only chance of survival just drove by. But Eisenhaur decided to retrace his trails and head home before dark.

A May 2008 wedding is planned.

The Fire Department was also at the celebration, uninvited but necessary. The reason? The smoke alarm at the municipal building went off after the \”two-some\” made a wish and blew the 115 cake candles out.

Now I know you are all thinking of something else to say….just remember to be kind. It is after all their birthdays. Myself I think they are good sports who know how to celebrate the special occasion with style….Bill

A reader wrote me today (Monday) that there is a part Beagle and something else little dog running around the neighborhood of Park Avenue and Klemm Avenue in Gloucester City. According to the concerned animal lover it is not known if the dog is a he or a she.

It has a collar with tag and shoulder harness so he/she was obviously someone\’s pet. The reader writes, \”He has been in my yard a few times, but he/she won\’t let us get too close to see the tag. He has taken shelter in my back yard so I have put some food and water out for him. He was either injured when he got out because he holds his back left leg up when he runs. He is very fast so we can\’t even catch him. He doesn\’t growl but is definitely scared when I try to talk to him and throw him some treats.\”

If anyone has lost their dog you can contact the concern person at the following email address: [email protected]. And or contact [email protected] and I will forward your message.

Joe Devine of Gloucester City traveled to Saskatchewan in November on a deer hunting trip . Using a rifle he took a 11 point buck that scored 141 points under the Boone and Crocket measurement rules.

In December he and his friend Ken Klodnicki, of Voorhees traveled to Iowa. Joe took a 10 pointer with a Muzzle loader that scored 143 points while Ken
shot an 11 point deer also with a Muzzle Loader which scored 150 points under Boone and Crocket.

Bill\’s Point of View:

Sam Carchidi staff writer for The Philadelphia Inquirer reported in Sunday edition that Justin Breaker was the leading vote-getter as the Tri-County Conference Classic Division\’s all-star quarterback. Breaker, 19, was one of three young men accused of taking part in an April 1 gang rape of a Salem County girl in a Pittsgrove apartment, according to the Salem County Prosecutor\’s Office. Breaker was indicted on Nov. 28, three days before he sparked Glassboro to a 24-7 win over Paulsboro in the South Jersey Group 1 final. Carchidi wrote, \”With the 6-foot, 185-pound Breaker playing a leading role, Glassboro went 12-0 this season.\”

According to The Philadelphia Inquirer , since he (Breaker) has been charged with raping a 15-year-old girl, the honor of being named the All-Star Quarterback is on \”hold.\”
