Default Those Were Shining Times!
I really like this one. I love the Mountain Man period of our western history and I think this little piece captures some of it. For those of you who aren't familiar with the phrase Shining Times it's when they reflected back on their time in the Rockies at the peak of the fur trapping period. I hope you like it and your comments are always welcome. More photos on the Blog.

Wow, he sure turned out nice Lynn!
When I said I was a fan of the Missouri Meerschaum pipe I was speaking of that fine corncob he was a smoking.
The first and largest manufacturer of corncob pipes is Missouri Meerschaum, located in Washington, Missouri in the USA.[1] Missouri Meerschaum has produced the pipes since 1869
