Mike. A bit of trivia. You know Donnie Stowe? He knows you. I went to high school in Sioux City with him and his brothers. I have not seen him for 32 years. We are meeting to have beers next week. Your name came up. I hope to meet you sometime. He speaks well of you

Idahoe, Yes indeed I know Donnie Stowe. He was my neighbor in Cedar Park,Tx. prior to our move to our ranch at Camp Wood. Took him out to Randy's pay dig with us one time. Him and Gwyen dug like moles, but didn't find much unfortunately. We still talk via e-mails. Gee 30+ years,..a long time. He's a great guy, and I know he will be glad to see you!

Mike-yes it was a thrill to hear from him. We go way back almost to the Late Archaic period. Oh my.. There are stories to be told and I am sure a couple beers to be shared. I am trying to get him diggin with me for a weekend. We dug a lot of dirt as teens but it was usually with the tires spinning on the back of the GTO! Not many points, only on the driving record.. I hope to meet you one day. I will be at Rolands all weekend if you get time to come visit. I will buy you a cold one.

Sounds like you guys were high school buddies! I'm sure it will be a great reunion! Thanks for the offer at Rolands, but I'm still getting over being skunked on my last pay dig, so I'm gonna be sittin tight for a while. Do hope to me you at some point not far down the road though!
