Anybody that mentions their dog, "and dog, Baby Girl" cannot be all bad!

Did a summer course at UALR and one of Zickwolf's projects was a lesson for our class in the Mount Ida/Hot Springs area. Got to work with him and his crew. Don't remember much of what went on back at UALR but do remember every second working in the field with his crew.
RIP Bob.
