Subject: RE: Kat's Dad got his Cowboy Songs tape done
You bet I do, SandyGramps! Kendall, Seamus, I fully expect both of you to be in HearMe, with video of course by then, regaling us with tall tales and stories!

Seamus, if you look in a thread I started about oral history and how much to edit, you will see I am working on putting dad's oral history into a book form. He grew up a real cowboy in Colorado where his granparents on both sides settled in the early days, so you will get to hear one of the real McCoys and let me tell you he retains the very distinct Western Colorado drawl. There is a bit of commentary between a few of the songs and you can hear it in the songs, too. There aren't very many natives around anymore who have that accent. My sister who stayed in Colorado does, somewhat. I lost it when I moved to Yankeeland.**BG**

Thanks, again, you phoaks are great!
