Good advice! Love the sandstorm ruse and the horse's name.

Thanks, K.C. Hollister is pretty quick on his feet. And the horse’s name is appropriate. 🤓

Hollister Bootstone! What a great name. I would watch a tv series of that same name - especially for all the good advice old Hollister would bring us. Mark Starlin! One of the best opening lines ever!

Thanks, Sharron. Hollister was like a stone in your boot. You can't ignore him.

Did you watch Westerns with my Grandma Janet?!

I did watch Westerns. But I don't think I knew your Grandma. She never went by Falling River, did she?

Then, I probably didn't know her. 🤓

Prior to my c diagnosis, I used to donate blood. They always had a Western praying on the overhead TV. I thought it was an interesting choice. Not controversial?

I liked it because it reminded me of grandma. 💜

Then that is a good thing. I have great memories of my Grandmothers.
