This is about the only time that history seemed interesting to me. We now have dwindled down to just under a thousand acres in Nebraska. Kinda sad.

Go there! Get that!!! If it's real, get a copy! make sure that YOUR kids have one too! History is important!

The thing that got my attention today... The helmet on the crest of the 'artist' that I commissioned was the SAME as the one on MY crest! ( but mine was turned at a 45 degree angle to his.) In all the internet searching I did not find ONE crest had THAT helmet!

Funny thing..... Today is the third anniversary of my Dad's passing. I commissioned the artist before I realized what day it is.

'Twilight Zone' music here!

P.S. (I own stock in a gold mine in Colorado), does that count???
