A question I have been asked a lot is, “Where do you find such interesting people?” My answer is simple, “I stumble across them by accident.”

Jim is originally from New York, but at a young age enlisted in the U.S. Air Force. Later, he moved to Virginia where he became an investigator for the Commonwealth of Virginia Department of Corrections. Jim told me that it was interesting, to say the least. He then added, “It taught me one thing, they’d have to kill me before they lock me up.”

Prior to moving to Tennessee, he resided on the north slope of Pikes Peak in Divide, Colorado. There, he lived on a 10,800 foot mountain in a log cabin. In looking back to his log cabin, he told me you could see for miles. With a smile he said, “You could see Oklahoma from up there.”

"There are hundreds of millions of gun owners in this country, and not one of them will have an accident today. The only misuse of guns comes in environments where there are drugs, alcohol, bad parents, and undisciplined children. Period." - Ted Nugent
