That's kind of amusing to read, Sarah. I too had my first experience with Carolyn Hester, and with fire ants, at Kerrville (89, only time I've been there.)

Absolutely charming woman. Sold her an ice cream bar at the snack store.

Fire ants are another story. One that you have to experience firsthand if you're dumb and "show-me" like old Willie-O. I found it hard to comprehend that it is deeply unwise to sit on the ground in south Texas, until I tried it.

Yeee-OOOOOOOOOOOOWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!! I must have looked an interesting sight.

Older, wiser in that particular area of experience.
