Thanks Dusty Turtle, The words and music make me feel like I am at a classic
cowboy movie of my youth and are very nostalgic. I will be glad to share my version of the song within the month. Thanks again,John.

There is a very positive first aid initiative in this country called "Stop the Bleed". Bleeding from trauma is the 2nd major cause of death in this country. Anyone can take these courses as it's pretty straight forward. As a longtime EMT who was on our rural first aid squad for a decade, I am so thrilled we are doing this in the US. Our local fire department gives the courses, free.
