REMEBERING KERRS

[Carl G. Bachhuber]

I wandered around Kerr's a time or two when I was a kid. If you liked nice firearms it was the ultimate candy store, and the people behind the counter were nice also. I saw the photo of Alex and Ken Barnes. Ken is a very interesting guy. I have talked to him a bit about the good old days of duck hunting in California. He is quite the skeet shooter and he still writes occasional articles for the Bakersfield Californian. Boy, have times ever changed.

Bring those pointers to the U.P. and lets see if we can make a grouse dog or two out of them

I miss the time with my Grandfather. We had some fine big running pointers. His best dog duke was a male from Johns S Gates 1940 National Champion
