Your post brought back memories of TV shows that I enjoyed as a young girl in the 50's & 60's - Wagon Train & Rawhide were two favourites. How I would enjoy seeing Fort Bent myself, thanks for taking us back to the Wild West this week on MM.<br />MaggieMaggiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16778709902157945708noreply@blogger.com
