It's kind of a long story but it might be better than the pen itself. My Father in Law grew up on a farm in a small town in West Texas. After I married his daughter we'd go to Paducah Texas every Labor Day for a family reunion. That was a new kind of hot to me. Not only the sun beating down on you there was the occasional breeze that blew the red sand all over. We had to be outdoors because that was opening day of dove season so everyone was out. Back to the pen. There was a small fruit orchard on the place and I remember everyone walking through the trees looking and talking about the "Old Days". After my wife's grandparents passed away I was able to go to the new land owners and get permission to cut a few small branches from some of the trees. There was apple, peach and apricot. I cut out a map of Texas and put a small star where Paducah Tx is located. My father in law's initials are C.S. The wood is apple from the orchard with guitar pic guard separating the cloth from the wood. Thanks for reading the rambling and Questions and Comments Welcome.
