Duck Season Somewhere

I'd stopped by to paw their new pintail and swan calls. Never mind that it was Sunday morning, or that a cold, wet rain was falling outside. Turning off the lights, we then had to lock Allen Bliven's shop doors to stall customer traffic long enough to  record uninterrupted. But it was worth it. How'd Allen and Julie Bliven begin duck hunting? And where'd 8 years-old Julie learn to kill her first duck that way? How'd they meet and why was it love at first sight - for Allen?! How'd they get into the waterfowl call making business, and how'd he develop his famous pintail whistle? What's so unique about Hyde County, North Carolina, what's its history? Y'all are going to enjoy this one.
