    Wow, BJ, who would ever have believed she would turn into THAT! Amazing transformance. She was the young girl on the streetcar who JB Books talked to on the way to his last shootout. Very nice, but I think we need this to be in the new thread....something about seniors. Not supposed to talk about things like this in the thread........let's just say you watched The Shootist last. OK, see you over there.......interested to find out about this pic! KEITH


    EK changed the name to The Members Thread, I think.....sorry, but there are big beautiful pics on there...go look. Keith

    The Andrew Hale Story, (two parts). One of the best Wagon Train Episodes.
    Has a good message for all.


    Riding the High Country...older Randy Scott and Joel McCrea. Really like this one.


    Fort Apache............fell asleep right before the massacre. Good thing, I really can't stand the end where the Legend becomes the Fact. Thought Lt. Colonel Thursday should have had to take the rap for the murder of his men due only to his pride and determination to make a name for himself to further his ambitions. A good soldier he might have been once, but by refusing to listen to the men who had a great deal more experience with the Indians and those in that area than he, he should have been court martialed. So there, I said it, LOL. Always have to make a considerable effort to LIKE Hank as I used to after seeing this movie. Oh, I know he, as Dern in The Cowboys, were incredible actors to produce these feelings in me, but.....still have to THINK before I watch something where they play good folks! Really does say something of their abilities. KEITH

    Thank you guys for responding to help me post pictures. I will try Keith's way first and if I fail I will certainly e-mail Hawkswill. Thank you both - Big Jim


    Hi Big Jim,
    If you give me your phone number, (can do it in an email if you want), and a time to call you, I will have you posting large pics as Larry Lasbugas does in less than a half an hour with a photobucket account and a few albums all set up. Getting used to this tutorial by phone now, LOL. And, it is free....I have unlimited long distance.......unless you are out of the states or its territories.
    I once had to go through the setting up of Photobucket and reading the Help section, etc......didn't care for it, although I eventually got through it and learned some neat tricks also. So, I donate my time to teach others. People get great satisfaction out of being able to post their items, and we all enjoy seeing them. Plus, I make new friends that way, LOL! Anyone is welcome.....love to teach. Just ask that you do NOTHING until I tell you to, LOL......makes it a long teaching effort if you do, because it usually ends up causing up to restart, LOL!


    Good luck on your own. Or send your phone number and a couple of good times to call to [email protected]. And you will be up and going while we are on the phone! HAGO, KEITH

    I Just got an autographed picture back, from Vera Miles, from The Man Who Shot Liberty Valance. I can't figure out how to post a picture or I would be glad to share my collection with all a few at a time. Anyone out there willing to teach an old "Dog" a new trick? Thanks Big Jim


    Well, so far, I have been the dedicated Photobucket trainer, LOL. Be glad to ""show you the ropes" if you want. Email me at [email protected] and we will make a time to get you going! Taught Gorch, (Bill), and Carl, (The Ringo Kid). They are my references, LOL. HAGO, KEITH

    Wagon Train
    Path of the Serpent and
    Weight of Command


    Two of the best of Ward's Wagon Trains First stars Terry Wilson as Bill Hawks with Noah Berry, Jr as famous Mountatin Man, also Jay Silverheels as his friend, The Serpent
    Second stars Ward, Bill , and Frank McGrath. Because of decisions to be made and outcomes, Ward shows tremendous emotion, as do the others.

    TossUPS is one of the worst delivery places I ever had to use. I too never use them and hate it when I get packages through them. Guess what? they FINALLY showed up last night at 8:30PM--and their last notice to me said they would be ther at 5PM. I wwas getting ready to go take a shower when I heard banging on the door. I opened it and the guy tried entering my place-I said I was not dressed and pushed him out and said give me the paper to sign (was some sort fo electronic device) and I guess thought i was going to keep the damned thing as he insisted holding onto the device. I ripped it from his hands-closed the door-signed it and opened my door and handed it back.


    Afraid if the guy tried to get into my house, I would've shot him....Yes, I am serious. At 62 PLUS, 120 pounds, and female to boot.......NOBODY is getting into my house that I don't know.....won't take any chances. Only have one pistol, my .357 Magnum 4 inch barrel S&W model #19. It is in my belt at the small of my back if someone even starts coming to the door that I don't know. And Yes, I know very well how to use it, LOL.


    I am watching tons of old JW movies...will have to write them down next time. Fun thing is seeing old character actors very young! Sometimes I first recognize them by their voice. Gabby Hayes is one, but is billed as George Hayes in a lot of the really old ones. Same voice, but dark shorter hair, no beard or mustache.........yet, need the voice, or you would pass him right over. He died in '69 at 83...quite a career he had! I think my favorite of his, so far is Tall in the Saddle. I can just see him almost getting pulled of the coach going down that mountain and being brought back to sitting by Duke! Yeah, Uhhuh! KEITH

    The Willy Moran story, which I believe was the first series episode of Wagon Train. Frank McGrath, Charlie Wooster, the cook, had not even grown his beard yet. He was deathly afraid of dialogue. But after he grew his beard, he had fun with it.....almost as if he were a different person.


    Ernie Borgnine was superb as Willy...ever seen him when he wasn't?


    Ward hadn't fully developed everything about the characters and even the little things. For instance, instead of just the "Wagons Ho....." that became the norm for the start of the day's drive, he tried a few different start off commands. But he was good, as always for him also!


    Thoroughly enjoyed it! TP, KEITH
