Please help me welcome Slim Randles back as today’s Wednesday’s Guest. While I do love his humorous offerings, now and then he gives us something that is incredibly thoughtful and, well, pretty. Not that a cowboy ever admits to pretty, at least not out loud to his friends at the Mule Barn Truck Stop. Why
