Happy Birthday, Lewis,
Been a while since you were here, like 4 years.  Hope all is well with you.
Live simply. Love generously. Care deeply. Speak kindly. Leave the rest Up to God.

Last I heard, Lewis was working at Buffalo Arms up near Sandpoint.
That's not too far from Spirit Lake.
And Buff Arms is a pretty neat place.
Seems like something Kevin ought to do, if he can spend any time outside of his horn and black powder making.

I'd love to work there, but I'm pretty sure Florida is calling my wife's name so.....,
 I always hoped to meet Mr lewis, who knows , I may have and never realized it.
 Anyways, happy birthday.

Florida?????????

Kevin, you don't get much snow in Florida.  Why even think about that?

No, no, no, no!  Say it isn't so.  Who's going to control the deer population if you leave?
