"Curious Occurrences Along Jaybird Creek"

Postby gator » Sat Jan 30, 2010 10:59 am

I'm gonna put this here as what you are about to read became a meeting place to discuss the killing of one "Carl Lewis", a turkey so named b/c he...well you'll just have to see. Anyhow, this is rather long, but it begins to tie everything concerning the "Heads or Tails Hunting Team" of my youth together. The way I saw it anyhow :wink:

Hope you enjoy:

“I saw it I tell ya! Looked like a man, sorta, but with big, red eyes! John S. you know I don't lie, 'specially about spooks...never woulda believed it had I not seen it with my own eyes!”

Chunk and I had just walked into the Ward's hamburger joint where my grand dad drank coffee every morning, all the while, solving the world's problems with a bunch of other men. My dad called them the “Prentiss Posse”, tongue firmly in cheek, of course.

“Now, what exactly happened Henry? You say you saw a “thing” down at Buzzard Bar, which I won't even get into why you were own mine and Harold's property, and this thing scared ya did it?” Gran Gran seemed a bit amused and slightly irritated that someone was on his property. He and Mr. Harold (Buff Magic and Chunk's daddy) owned property on either side of the banks, and it seemed every fall and spring we had to deal with folks trespassing, fishing deep holes for bass. Wasn't a big deal so long as no one threw out any trash.................
