This country and the men and women who made it what it is. The many dogs that gave me their joy, affection, and comfort during good times and bad. The paperback Crest Books The Old Man and the Boy by Robert Ruark I bought at a Katz drugstore in KC at age 13. That book (which I still have), God's grace, and the Boy Scouts, changed the direction of my life forever.
