.........maybe some of our younger folks who never had the pleasure can be inspired to read the works of a man who influenced so many of us.
I had the opportunity to meet Skeeter one time at the SHOT show, and I treasure that visit to this day.Got a photo around here somewhere, will see if I can dig it up.
A few years back we were out running the junk and gun shops shops in Oklahoma, Texas, and New Mexico when I took a strange detour on to a back road. My wife asked where I was going and I told there was a place I had to see.
I stopped at a bridge on a county road and got out.I spent several long minutes looking at nothing, but really seeing two boys engaged in their adventures along Tierra Blanca creek.
I was glad Skeeter let me go along with him and Joe in my mind.
My wife is still wondering what drew me to that place.
His son, Bart, stops by here from time to time and if he does I hope he knows how special his Dad was to many of us.
We miss you Skeeter!
