A Thousand Campfires
« on: February 04, 2019, 03:56:07 PM »
Finally got this book thanks to a nice gentleman in Texas! Wanted it for a long time! Looks unread too. No signature, but does have a “Steve Dye” from 2/16/99 signature.

One of my favorites - I try to read it every year or two.  Love Jay's writing style!
Genesis 27:3 "Take your bow and a quiver full of arrows out into the open country, and hunt some wild game for me."

Varmint101, I know where you can get a complete set of Jay's 4 books right now (if you are the high bidder, hint hint...) 🤓

I just saw that Jeff! Would be awesome, but sure can’t spend that much right now. Those should go for much more than $200!

I was privileged to call Jay a friend and got to hunt with him on his famous Moose John river. Here's my signed copy of "A Thousand Campfires"

We live in the present, we dream of the future, but we learn eternal truths from the past
When you were born, you cried and the world rejoiced. Live your life so that when you die, the world cries and you rejoice.
Life is like a wet sponge, you gotta squeeze it until you get every drop it has to offer

Had the great pleasure of talking with Jay on the phone a few times and meeting him once and have all 4 of his books signed to me... Great man, wish he was still with us...
