Memories: Boot Horns

Ricardo Boot Horns like these have been around our family for a long time. The one on the left belonged to our great uncle, Uncle Terry. I guess I inherited it when he passed on in the mid 1980's. The one of the right I have had for almost as long as I can remember. I am sure I got it from a relative or something but it has been hanging around my room for a long long time....maybe since I was little.




I do not see these very often anymore and thought they were interesting memories. Uncle Terry was a rancher and it just seemed natural that he would have a boot horn. They both work great as door stops too. :)

Memories and Pictures

This is one of my favorite pictures of Emily and me taken six or seven years ago. We tried to reproduce it today when Emily decided to hug me on the small couch. I do not look so happy but it is just the fact I was waiting to smile and look up on que but Gwen got the picture off a tad sooner than I anticipated. Oh well we may try again. It seems just like yesterday we took the older picture.


Elizabeth wanted her picture taken in the same way. Pretty cool.

A Christmas Present Remembered - Buck Knife

I got to thinking that I do not really have too many Christmas presents left from my youth. So I have decided to post pictures of them as I find them. I have several lined up.

This one is from when I was about 14yrs old. It is a Buck Knife. I still carry it when I go hunting. It is good and broke-in now. :) I may wrap it up and put it under the tree again this year.
