Default Podcast.....

I've been asked by a dozen people to be on their podcast but never would do it. Ramsey had a week to work on me and finally the last afternoon I broke down. There is talk of vintage guns but no Parkers as I didn't take one on this trip. If you wanna hear me blather away about my ill spent youth and hatred of foreign made products give it a listen:

I really enjoyed the podcast Destry. I’m not as traveled as you but we were cut from the same cloth. I was born in the early 50’s and spent my youth and later years going to flea markets and yard sales picking up treasures and trinkets from years gone by and it made me feel a part of those wonderous times that made the common man a true pioneer of the American way. I was raised in Fort Worth but spent my summers at my cousin’s place in west Texas between the towns of Vincent and Big Spring. His dad (my uncle) was a dry land cotton farmer so there was plenty of land for us boys to hunt quail, dove, rabbits, rattlesnakes, coyotes and occasionally jump ducks off the stock tanks. It was a way of life that instilled in me a sense of adventure and the understanding of the way of life that I wanted to pass on to my children in later years. My family of two boys and two daughters and their spouses still return to my cousin’s place every year to visit and hunt. And hopefully my grandchildren will carry on the tradition.

Enjoyed it Destry. Interesting if it's the first podcast you've done, because it's the first one I've ever listened to!

They seem to be the new thing and some are good, like this one.

Destry,
Nicely done. Many things in the discussion resonated with me......
- I went to school at Carbondale
- I lived in Salem township Michigan
- Guided in Crab Orchard wildlife refuge
- Spent some time with Tim Grounds
- Love to find older gems
- Old whiskey is a passion
- Buy American

Best!

I took time yesterday to listen to the podcast from start to finish. I enjoyed it. I would say you have been living a very interesting life and perhaps the envy of many an outdoorsman. Carry on and keep the stories of your adventures coming.
