"It's been a helluva ride"
 
   I started reading his westerns around 1976 and read them all, and reread many. His work has been such a constant thread through my life that, honestly, I can't really even describe or explain the importance it held for me. I just love Louis Lamour westerns.

I find it has influenced me more as I grow older. I find myself reflecting back on fond memories of reading this or that title, and the stories and characters in them, as well as a deep connection to and longing for the 'eras' he portrayed in his stories. Oh, and I also read his memoir about ten times I think.

Wish I coulda met him. I envy you, Beau and Angelique, that yall got to know Louis so well.

I am sure others feel similarly, about the influence he had on your life. His work lives on!

Anyone want to share?
