Chet Garner needs to go back to the Leona General Store on Thursday nights, when it’s just some of the best catfish anywhere [We Break for Steak, June 2024].

Traveling South, Traveling East
I loved the idea of emotional healing by traveling to every state park [Trailblazer, June 2024]. I was a little disappointed that no South Texas parks were mentioned.
My favorite story in the issue was Renewal in Blue. I traveled to East Texas with the young girl and loved the ending with the bluebonnets.

Multiplying at the Sixes
As an avid fan of the Yellowstone TV series, it was captivating to learn about the Burnett family and how the Four Sixes Ranch began and grew into one of the 10 largest ranches in the state [Sixes on the Small Screen, May 2024].

Avenging Uncle
James Franklin Norfleet was my great-uncle [Payback Time, May 2024]. I remember when we would visit the Norfleets at their home in Hale County in the 1950s, and Aunt Eliza would regale us with stories of earlier days.
Uncle Frank awed us kids as he would always strap on his pistol belt before going outside. For kids growing up listening to The Lone Ranger, we were quite impressed.

Roadside Attractions
It seems to me that Michael Ford has discovered and perfected a new art form on the Texas landscape [Overpass Easels, May 2024]. His work is extremely expressive of Texas and unique in each example.

Michael Ford’s art certainly adds real character and beauty to our roads.
