Nope, Paladin and Josh raised the bar. Matt was OK for a guy who hung out w/ cripples and hookers. Then Festus came along and elevated everyone's game.

For the wags joking about Dale, and Roy being dead, well, we all will be someday. What a legacy they left. I'd like to do so well.

You folks are making fun of American icons. At our church they play Happy Trails at the end of the service, I like it.
LOL!
Hahaha. Thats appropriate.
I know a pastor who plays the WV anthem....
Country Roads. I think he leaves out the line about moonshine though. π

Surprised that this recording had so many views.
In case you've never been here, most of these.pictures aren't of West Virginia.
It is a taste of paradise when you get away from towns though.

In the '70s there was a chain of headshops in the Phoenix area called Happy Trails. My sister didn't know Roy and Dale had recorded the song many years earlier; the first time she heard it she was shocked they would do an ad for a headshop.
