Birds, pool cues and clydesdales can all be found in this episode. We first meet Loren Hughes, well-known in Edgar County, Illinois, as the "Bluebird Man." Covering and logging what he finds on miles of trails everyday, his dedication to the little, blue feathered ones has made Edgar County the premiere producer of bluebirds statewide! Our second story takes us to Sullivan, Illinois, where 7th generation farmer Mike Durbin makes hand-made pool cues with intricate inlays. Our last story in this episode features Farrell Farms. This clydesdale farm has been in the family for generations.
