The other day, I tagged along with a friend to the Grand Opening of the new CAT (with tractors) dealership in Hayden ... The best thing about it - everything was free. Well, not everything. The tractors cost money. But there were free CAT caps, free pens, free key rings, free hamburgers and hotdogs. We'd just had brunch but still - I wanted a free hamburger. It was a hot, hot day, but cool in the two-story warehouse-type building that was more of a walk-through than anything else. What I loved was all the people in there - mostly men, but some women - who wanted to see the new CAT building and get the brochures on the newest style of tractor/Beth Bollinger, Accidental Rabbit Trails.

Question: Do you where a baseball cap with an advertisement on it? What does it say?
