I used this as a lesson for Dragon... not to ever cheat! Grandpa Troll wants to know if Peter the Cheater lived in the Wild West? If so, he said that Limmerwulf may be interested in visiting his town to give us the whole scoop on the towns history... This winter. You know LimmerWulf... Always on the move, and probably always looking for a new place to visit! LOL... Yep! That's him!
