A long time ago and not far from here a small boy was born.\u00a0 He was born with a fishing pole, \u00a0a full set of teeth, gumboots and a love for the great outdoors.\u00a0 Ted Burns was six feet and 9 inches\u00a0tall.\u00a0 He\u00a0could wrestle a\u00a0 big ol bear for his supper, a good plate of fried chicken legs and steamed broccoli which of course is often\u00a0a\u00a0bear’s natural diet.<\/p>\n

Salmon, Ted loved Salmon.\u00a0 Not to eat of course. He watched Salmon grow from tiny little eggs to full grown fish.\u00a0 He studied the Salmon and he raised them like they were his own flesh and blood.\u00a0 He gave every Salmon its own name, just like a child.\u00a0 If it was a female Salmon than it recieved a little girl’s name and if it was a male Salmon, well, it recieved a little boy’s name too.<\/p>\n

Everywhere Ted Burns travelled the Salmon all knew him.\u00a0 They would let him stay at their little Salmon houses where he would help them raise their little ones.\u00a0 The Salmon loved Ted Burns and Ted Burns loved the Salmon.\u00a0 Ted Burns was the best man at nearly all of the Salmon weddings and many Salmon schools were named after him.
