This is amazing-one the longest e-mails I've ever recieved from my bro. It's such a guys view I just had to post it. Not much help, but he tried....LOL.
My friend Craig's Dad owns 600 acres in Hydro, a small town east of W'ford.
Well, my biggest entertainment was riding dirt bikes, jeeps, etc up and down the dried up Canadian river(or possibly raft trips when there was water), drinking beer and blasting the crap out of stuff with guns. (Dad even came out a couple of times)
We even set off a home made bomb or two occasionally.
Its a college town, SW State University hence a large bar west of town "Cowboys" not sure if name is the same.
The only "classy" restaurant in town was (is?) The "T" Bone.
There is the Tom Stafford museum, Little Mexico restaurant and curio shop.
My old house N 7th Street is something of a landmark. It was owned by the wealthiest person in W'ford when it was built in the 40's.
Did you ever see it? (Full basement, stone fence, a lot of potential)
Thats about it. There isn't anybody there I still stay in touch with. A good friend, Jr Stephens lives in Alfalfa, a small town south about 20 miles
Oh yeah Cowden, Okla is on H152 just south of w'ford. Not much to see, 2 houses, an abandoned High School and a cemetary (didn't find any "Cowden's" there)

Well, I recognize the name David Allen Coe so we're even. LOL.
It was interesting growing up with Bill as my brother-he built rockets, computers, all kinds of stuff-if it was electrical or chemical he had to take it apart and soup it up. But, I won't lie, I like to shoot the crap out of beer cans too.
