An interest in Country and Western music was the reason I first started in the western scene. Attending some of the music clubs, and learning the history which then lead to joining my first show team about 30 years ago. From there I then started doing reenactments first with the Confederate and Union reenactment group as a Sargent Major. Workload lead me to taking a break from reenacting. I was then asked by my friend Jed if I would like to join the Wyoming Wild Bunch, but it was a further two years before I joined, after stepping in to assist when the group had two shows on the same weekend and I agreed to help out, thus my first show with the Bunch was at Fort Nelson in Portsmouth, and I have been a member ever since. Was a cowhand now a retired cow hand trying to figure out what to do after settling down and the passing of his wife
