CADDO'S COVE

INTRODUCTION
© 1999

NOW THAT I'M IN MY OLD AGE AND DO MOST OF MY HUNTING AND FISHING IN MY MEMORY, I DECIDED TO WRITE ABOUT A FEW OF MY EXPERIENCES. I DECIDED TO WRITE THEM IN THE FORM OF A SHORT STORY. THESE STORIES ARE ABOUT 90% TRUE AND 10% FICTION. MY WIFE, JOHNNIE, SAYS THEY ARE 10% TRUE AND 90% FICTION. MAYBE THEY ARE SOMEWHERE IN BETWEEN. BUT BE THAT AS IT MAY, HERE ARE MY STORIES.

THEY HAVE BEEN WRITTEN FOR THE AMUSEMENT OF MY TWO DAUGHTERS, SUSAN AND ANGELA, MY TWO GRANDDAUGHTERS, AMANDA AND GINGER, AND MY GREAT GRANDDAUGHTER, CHIVONA LYNN (AKA "DOODLEBUG"), AND ANY ONE ELSE THAT WANTS TO READ THEM.

THOSE WERE THE DAYS, MY FRIEND. WE THOUGHT THEY WOULD NEVER END. WE THOUGHT THEY WOULD LAST FOREVER AND A DAY. WE WOULD LIVE THE LIFE WE CHOSE WE WOULD FIGHT AND NEVER LOSE. FOR WE WERE YOUNG AND SURE TO HAVE OUR WAY.

SO COME TIME TRAVEL WITH ME. LET'S TAKE A CRUISE DOWN MEMORY LANE TO THE GOLDEN, OLDEN DAYS.
