Hey Jimmy good to hear the stories. Hope you had a great X-mas. I've been deer hunting. I got a big 11 point that scored 152 B&C with my bow. I haven't seen Joe to tell him.

I got a gun from that store when I was 12 that I hunted deer with until I had a son old enough to want his own gun. It is with a 2nd. generation Evans now & I look forward to watching the 3rd. generation kill a deer with it. You think about your dad as often as I think about my mom. I have a few things of hers that you gave her over at the lake. She cherised them because she thought alot of you. I will continue to take good care of them until I see her again. I look forward to seeing on the lake this Spring. I wish you the best of luck in Brazil.

Somewhere around 25 years ago I was in Smitty's shopping and I heard this loud snoring. Walked over to a rack of hanging clothes and this man was sleeping right there on the floor. Was that him? Also remember them turning out the over head lights to get some shoppers to leave the store!

I sure miss the store,no places like that any more. I spent many and hour looking for the "magic bait". Jimmy I still have the 2 Abu 4500's you sold me so long ago. They still work great.Have a great time with the Peacocks. Take care.
When the need arises--and it does--you must be able to shoot your own dog.Don't farm it out--that doesn't make it nicer.it makes it worse.
