Damn!... I haven't come in here much in the past several months, but I did yesterday and found this, was shocked, and sat down and read all 75 pages. I don't know what to say. I'll miss Greg's posts: the salt, the wit, and the wisdom. And he was a dog man, made 'em part of his family. His vision and craftsmanship amazed me at times. The new hood assembly that he built out of an old water heater tank for his Kubota tractor was pure genius. He was a hell of a man and one of the good guys in the Campfire that I hoped to be able to meet someday.

Digital Dan, CCCC, Kent, and the others that have grabbed the bull by the horns and done the right things for Greg and Gracie, my hat's off to all of y'all. Every man should hope to have friends like y'all.

Greg, may you and Gracie rest in peace!


Bring enough gun and know how to use it.

Know that it is not the knowing, nor the talking, nor the reading man, but the doing man, that at last will be found the happiest man. - Thomas Brooks (1608-1680)
