Thanks to Ann M. (Ed. note: Maybe Russell will speak here some day! Can anyone else beat this cousin story? And yes, keep your boots on!)
After a career in home building, my Texas cousin Russell Eppright now manufacturers “top drive” hunting vehicles with compartments for guns, dogs, beer, etc. He poses with rattlesnakes on his ranch.


Yes, Dr. Jim, let’s get Russell to Skyline. We need more interesting characters in this world, don’t we? 🙂 What a cool dude on his ranch — muddy boots, two hands, and three rattlesnakes…don’t mess with Texas, ha!
