What antique have you found/discovered while scrapping?

Thanks, Patriot. I do miss my time in the Black Hills of both South Dakota and NE Wyoming where I taught for 16 years. But my summers as a park ranger were also very important to me. While I worked at Devils Tower, I had the pleasure of visiting and touring both national and state parks in six surrounding states. So my real treasures are those memories with my wife and kids there. Thanks again for the reminder that true value comes in all forms.

Where did you teach and what parks were you a ranger at. We may have met on the trail.

I taught high school English in Hulett, Wyoming. During six summers, I worked as a seasonal interpretive ranger. I did evening fireside talks three nights a week, wrote and published Devils Tower: The Story Behind the Scenery, and wrote the park’s script for the visitor’s center film. I also worked security details for special visits like George Bush, Sr. Visit to Mount Rushmore. Great experiences, all.
