Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire I Could Not Resist.

Scott,

You've got too much time on your hands.....but then, that's another song. <grin>

Scott's "different" - ask him about the second time he shot himself in the head!

my dad worked in the rail yards there for a number of years for the santa fe.
he was constantly trying to hook me up with this mormon chick. Somewhat stupid at the time didn't work.
She was from the clan the name whiting brothers came from.
As in oil, lots of it.
my life would have been different.
what scott also probably doesn't know is you drive south of there and you are in primo elk country.

I'm not old enough to get it, or is that too old to remember it. ;-{>8


Cool.

For those that don't get it

I was just going to post that.......

Classic.

Way cool.

Ernie

Too funny, thanks!

Wish I'd known that was there in May. My wife and I saw the sign for Winslow as we were driving toward the Grand Canyon. I almost made a slight detour just to say I'd been there. Would have been one of the best photo ops of the trip.

It does help explain a lot doesn't it.

Not really.....Haven't heard the story yet.

I am sure Mark will be gloat to tell you all about it.

ahhhh, the good 'ole days of our youth.

Just a short 39 years worth of yesterdays.

Scott;
It's been too long since I've said hello to you my friend - I do follow your posts but don't always comment.

Anyway, I wanted you to know I caught the inference...

As I tell the guys at work, "It's a lot less funny for me when I have to explain my jokes to you all..."



I really enjoyed the trip down memory lane too Scott - the Eagles supplied a whole lot of material to the soundtrack of my teen years as a farm boy in Saskatchewan. My goodness that seems like a lifetime ago and when I add it up, I see that it was.

All the best to you folks this summer sir.

You got Al of it my friend.

I drove thru there last year, I think. I had to blink, and I'm not sure we went thru there or not. We were on I-40, in a hurry to get to Cottonwood, where my MIL had just passed. No time to lollygag, unfortunately.

I like Arizona heaps and heaps. Nice place to vacation.

I see some other folks on the forum remember some of the song:

"Standing on the corner in Winslow Arizona, such a fine sight to see-

A girl my Lord in a flatbed Ford slowin down to take a look at me-

Takin it easy, takin it easy, don't let the sound of your own wheels make you crazy"-

That is about as for as I can get without listening to the song, Been many years since I heard it.

Well, I see that I screwed that up pretty well. Forgot the first part completely.

I'm downloading the Youtube link right now. Sure brings back some memories.
