Not long ago I did a story about the country's oldest working CEO –  103-yrs! He started a company called Rockmount and basically invented the western shirt as we know it. Last night with Bruce (great story by the way) you were wearing one of his designs. His grandson called with 2 requests:   1) Where did you get it? 2) Can they get a digital screen grab for their website. He tells me you'd be pictured with the likes of Clapton and Elvis.

Steve I'd be delighted. I've been buying Rockmount shirts from the Denver store for many years. I have a wardrobe of them. Jane wants me to throw out the ones with holes in them but I refuse...

I often give Rockmount Ranch Wear as gifts.   Send me the e-mail address and I'll send the grab.

All best,  Scott
