Last night I got to meet Tyler and Joe Murphy. I felt like I’d known them for years. I reckon I have known Joe for 20 years but never met in person. I’ll say they were both sure enough good guys. We had a very good time. Tyler you have a beautiful family . I can’t wait it hang with you guys again. Hopefully you guys will find me a good deal on a howitzer and I’ll be back for it.

Pat I have a feeling that ole Joe and I might be similar in that talking deal. They sure enough had to weather my stories.

It’s like with my wife, I tell her; If I didn’t tease you, I’d never talk to you! lol ------------- I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science. |

I remember seeing a piece in the paper some years ago (probably 10 or better) that said there was a guy around Sixes I believe that restored old artillery pieces.

Hubert I give you my word. I was at the mercy of my traveling bud and we kept to an itinerary. I hope to one day have a NC GA TN trip. I have lots of ancestors in Wilkes County NC. I plan to visit graves. I have 3 confederate crosses to place while I’m there. Still searching one grave. And yes I must agree I sure did meet two fine fellows and 3 good girls. Was a true blessing. I was a bit snake shy for a few days after I got home. Kind of jumpy every time I stepped on a stick.
