Gifts From Far Away Lands..Pitchy, Griff, and Harry
First, I've been working on this for THREE hours and all of a sudden..... everything I typed in goes to Cyber space. So I'm gonna try submitting my story and keep on editing it......see? Italians ain't so dumb after all.---6
I have been receiving gifts from far away Lands, like Wyoming, Texas, and Minnesota. Harry, who flys the Stars and Bars from Wyoming, Griff, another good ole boy from Texas, and my main man Pitchy, from Big Foot Land in Minnesota.
Wait....I'm extremely aggravated at the moment...3 hours of aggravation with this I Pad.......I'm ready to give it a workout with the BAR.......OK....ten minutes later....I counted to ten and feel better.......
Harry, from Wyoming sends me a pair of cartridges for my collection based on the 500 S&W...called the T-Rex.....he is more of a man than I am...the 44 mag is my limit......then, my pal from Texas, Griff, is trucking through Montana, stops at the Shiloh Sharps business and buys me a kick azz T-shirt......the topper today was when I received a package from my main man Pitchy......a model of ME, complete with BAR and a bottle of Wild Turkey. I'm 62 yo and I cried.....no one has ever spent so much time on a project and then sent it to me. YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST!!!!!!
I'll start posting pics and keep on editing to keep from losing everything---6
Harry and his T-Rex.....with a factory 44-40 in the middle
Me modeling Griff's T shirt...I don't have a 74 side hammer so I included the 1881 Buffalo barreled Marlin.
The
FINAL resting place for Pitchy's masterpiece.......my bedroom dresser. This will be ......next to the photo of my mom and dad..the first thing I see when I get up......
The ones who made me...my mom and dad.....God rest their souls.....picture taken in 1947 in front of my grandfathers 39 Plymouth

Man Six, that is an incredibly life-like work of art Pitchy did . . . oh wait. I scrolled down.
Mmm. Not sure which one is more life-like.

Pitchy,
You have no idea on my gratitude. Yea, took me a while to unwrap it but like the Chinese say, "nothing of great importance is gained without great effort". Your the best buddy....I owe you.
I have a wake to go to tonight....Old buddy of mine dropped dead at 59..........hard worker his whole life...good guy. I told a few of the boys I'll be there at 7 with a couple of cases of cold ones to bs in the parking lot of Paganos funeral home in Boothwyn, Pa.
Depressing....seems like not a month goes by without the same kind of news. ---6
