Bio
Retired to east Texas piney woods after 20+ years as a tankerman with Kirby Inland Marine. Active with East Texas Patriot Guard Riders and Snowball Express. Experimenting with reloading and some black powder shooting. I’ve also decided to put my old Eagle Scout experience back to work. I’m working with a local Troop. I’m teaching from my ‘ancient’ handbook when possible.
