Biography

I currently reside in Prairieville, Louisiana. In the 1960s and early 1970s I had the privilege of working on three family ranches in south central Wyoming. I worked on Lee McQuay's place, the Diamond Ranch and on Howard and Audrey Brokaw's 3 Circle Ranch. The 3 Circle is where I worked the longest. I started out working in the hay fields. Through the patience and tutelage of those I worked for, especially Howard Brokaw and his foreman Del Esquibel, I progressed to being a cowboy/ranch hand. A lot of my stuff is from these experiences.

Poetry is finer and more philosophical than history; for poetry expresses the universal, and history only the particular.

Aristotle (384 BC-322 BC) Greek philosopher.
