Who are they

[gophergrease]

Hint they had Wild Bill, Buffalo Bill and David McCanles (first man shoot by Wild Bill) all at the table together.
They had US and CSA solders lay down there arms for a meal.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Er, GG, did you mean "WHO" are they, not HOW are they? If it's how are they, I'd guess they're dead.

OOOPS! I OOOPSED!

Who are they?

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

I know! They were cooks!!



AnnieLee

[Delmonico]

Looks like the fellas' from the "Cast Iron Chef" show.   Looks like enough cast iron to build a Caterpiller diesel engine.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Wait a sec... with all those dutch ovens...

Is that the infamous GopherGrease and Delmonico??


AnnieLee

[Delmonico]

What do you mean INFAMOUS?

[The Arapaho Kid]

I  KNOW!  I KNOW!   Bud Abbott and Lou Costello...before they were discovered by Hollywood!

[Delmonico]

<Whisper on:  The Arapaho Kid has never discovered that cooks carry castor oil and know how to use it in secret, just like Skimpy in Monte Walsh. Whisper Off>

That picture was taken in June of 2003, this is about 400 yards west of where Wild Bill killed Dave MacCandless.   About 200 yards on west the ruts where tens of thousands of wagons went up the hill can still be seen.  There are several unmarked graves with in a 1/4 mile and hopefully not one where our fire is.  We dig in the same spot every year cause we ain't found nobody there yet.

Now figure out who is who.

[The Arapaho Kid]

Excuuuuuuuuuusssssse Me!  My old granny was a country lady from Missouri.  I learned about castor oil b'fore I was in school!!!!

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Dang, I was right!!

That pic is too small to make out the faces, but my wild guess is that Delmonico is on the right.

AnnieLee

[Delmonico]

Yup, that picture was a bit in the shadow, but it is a good un with all that cook gear.  Will get some that show everything some time includin' our green monstor, our Hoosier type cupboard.  If we take it all, (never do) we gots enough gear to fill 4-5 pickup trucks.  I gots a big cookstove and a hog scalder we ain't never hauled out, cause we almost need a semi.  But we can feed over a 100 folks now with the new oven.

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

Well, what's my prize? I could use a lid lifter...

Well, what's my prize? I could use a lid lifter...




AnnieLee

Some people call those running irons. 

Slim

[Delmonico]

The infamous lid lifter/runnin' iron is there somewhere.

[gophergrease]

Annie Lee, I'll talk to the blacksmiths about your lid lifter. But they don't work so fast at times.
If not can get you one of your extra special baking trivets.

[Delmonico]

Gopher Grease brought me a 8X10 of this in to work today, the lid/lifter/runnin' irun is in his hand.

Joe from the Work Dept looked at it and decided we looked like a couple a miners whot struck the "Mother Lodge".   Joe is famous fer bad jokes.

[Four-Eyed Buck]

Next question, WHO lifts all that Irun? And do you use a fork truck to get that cast irun stove out?..........

[Joyce (AnnieLee)]

An 8x10 of what, Del? The pic that is your avatar? I was hoping he brought you my iron or trivet!

Wanted; Muscular young fella to lift dutch oven's in and out of truck.  Will be well fed and will be given lessons in dutch oven cooking.   

The picture in my Avatar is stolen from Buffalo Bill's Wild West show, that is a cook pot that fella is messin' with.   Will get proper picture of me in the future.  How 'bout a dutch oven in one had, the Sharps in the other, wearin' my flannel night shirt.
