Hello all, I've been off for awhile. My health got me down again I din't feel much like doing anything, So I'm back I hope indefinately. I feel pretty darn well. I visited Tim Holts grave the other day when I got out to walk, it's just down the street. The duke stood there once. Holt's son still lives in Harrah. When Holt was dying Duke flew in a helicpter to Shawnee Hospital to see his friend. Then he attended the funeral later on. What a great guy . It seems the duke kept his friends close. My little Town is home of Paul and loyd waner, Tim Holt, James garner a few miles east was born. Out behind my house is the old wagon trail and Buffalo wallers, from sattelite view you can still see the wallers. The prarie grass out back is virgin land its pretty cool to think in your own backyard, Indians, Buffalo, and Bill Tillman riding through after an outlaw. Till the next time

Glad you made it back. I took some time off awhile ago. Everyone needs a recharge once in awhile. See you around.

Sorry to hear you were feeling under the weather, but real glad you're feeling better, and well enough to join in the fun again!

Thanks for the interesting background to your hometown. A person can learn more things around this place:wink_smile:!

Welcome back!!

Welcome back, brick. Gald to hear your feeling better. I'm like you, I look out over historic or virgin ground and can just imagine the scenes that have graced that land. I hate seeing progress swallow up good empty acres with houses and Industrail Parks. :glare:
