Loved to shoot them and smell the "smoke". And I had a Dale Evans cowgirl outfit.

During the research I did for a recent manuscript submittal, I found many intriguing facts. Fun to get lost in those historical fact-finding trips! Very interesting about Mr. Colt's wife continuing with the business...strong women. Great quote about the naming of the Peacemaker.<br /><br />I just finished reading Cloaked in Love...and loved it! The tie-in to crocheting...and the "stitches" blog is so fun!<br /><br />Thanks for your post, Elaine!Sherida Stewarthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09986466218366625633noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7474271316278058173.post-28108259393726243362016-08-02T10:17:05.504-04:002016-08-02T10:17:05.504-04:00Thanks for stopping by, Melody.Thanks for stopping by, Melody.stitchesthrutimehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13592361290873081613noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7474271316278058173.post-36702231972458480342016-08-02T10:16:12.324-04:002016-08-02T10:16:12.324-04:00Hi Linda
