Books and Howdy ! Mickey


By Welester - Posted on 10 May 2007

Hi Mickey ,

Nice to read you again ! I've got a question for you , there are a couple of folks here that are interested in any books that are for sale . Books that are of use to the folks from here .
Apart from that how are you and what have you been up to . I've been doing some fossil hunting and was luck enough to find some indian arrow heads and a fantastic place that has lots and lots of indian paintings in very good condition.

Take care,
Welester
