  • Great pictures Sonny. I worked with you and Jim Haislop. I retired in 1993 and moved to Texas. I guess you still bow hunt with Jim. Good lucvk with your life and hunting.
  • Enjoyed the pictures very much. Happy New Year to you and yours!
  • It is ugly in the mountains but we're not there! We are in Tampa until the first of March. Talked to the lady that watches after our house and she said the same thing that your friends in Bryson City have said BUT it is worse on that side of the mountain. Balsam Mountain received 12 inches of snow and there are so many without of power. You were sweet to think of us! Will you be coming for the reunion in May?
  • Hi Son, good to hear from you. Thanks for the kind words. I always try to keep a smile going. It takes less effort than a frown. :) Enjoyed you interesting pictures. We enjoy lots of wild life up here in the mountains and I've got some great bear pictures as they are around now and then. This year we've had a three legged bear around. Found out his name is Tripod. Someday I am going to post them. Oh, by the way, your granddaughter is drop-dead gorgeous! Take care.
  • Actually, my friend, we are tied. I went to Bryan, Dunedin Elementary, back to Bryan...Dunedin Jr High for 7th grade, Franklin, and then Hillsborough. Guess you might be one-up on me though, by 6 months, cause I quit high-school in Jan '60 and joined the Coast Guard. :>)
  • Hello Son,
    I hardly remember anyone from our class since I've been gone so long, and even perusing the old annual is no help. But I do find it rather interesting that we've ended up practically neighbors (35 miles!) in little towns in the Deep South. Unlike you, however, I'm still a city girl and prefer to view nature through a window. :-)

    Our 50th reunion next year should be very interesting!

  • Hi Son,

    During the Cuban Crisis I was stationed at MacDill with a signal unit. We deployed to the field near Archer and waited for the worst. That Saturday I was making the rounds of my HF radio rigs when I heard
    distant shouting and cheering coming from Gainesville. The Gators were playing
    Auburn----the folks in that stadium had no idea how close to war we were. Later I
    found out Kennedy traded our missiles in
    Turkey to get Russia out of Cuba.

    Take care,

  • Good to hear from you after all these years. I remember your home and taxidermy shop. Lee tells me he lost track of you quite some time ago. Are you doing well? Do you remember Larry Hohnadel and William Miller?
  • Hey, you ol' 'son' of a gun! You still doin' taxidermy? Come back, good buddy.
