Sorry to say, I've forgotten his name, but if he is as enthusiastic in Fort Davis as he was at HG and FB's "Gathering of the Fools" event, those people are in line for a taste of real hospitallity (Texas Style). I wish him and the people of West Texas the very best in their recovery efforts.
      Great video, didn't really want to see the horses in that situation, but still good video. We all love horses, we pen them up and sometimes don't look out for their safety as we should. Sometimes we even put ourselves in situations we can't get out of, but we always endure. So will the people and the landscape of West Texas. A beautiful dessert country will return, even more beautiful and greener than before. I love going there.

Thanks Bandit for the work you and other volunteer do at disaters . As a retired  Vol. Firefighter with 21 years in the fire service. I know the great service  ya'll do behind the sence .  I can tell you for a fact, that when you have been fighting fires  all day and being with out food all day and maybe a drink of water now and then.  When you are  loading up with water late in the afternoon or late at night and someone hands you a sandwich and a drink  . It is really apprecited. Thanks agin for the work ya'll do.
                                                thanks
