Introduction	Just an old mountain boy ... lived in the flat land and other places but now.. back in the mountains.. who has seen a lot, done a lot, and can talk about almost anything. Love for God, country, and family about sums up my position on just about anything or everything. I learned a lot from those who came before me and especially love a saying given to me by my grandfather: "Speak of what you know, know of what you speak; the rest of the time keep quiet, you might learn something.” He was indeed a very wise man. I’ve tried to follow that advice and don’t mind passing it on to others. If nothing else, it makes one appear to be a lot smarter.
