I was in Austin at McBrides fun store just for fun, & he came in. I saw his badge & recognized it as a Texas Rangers right away. They are traditionally , & still made from a Mexican peso coin. I hold all law enforcement, & military personal in high esteem, buy I have always wanted to see, or meet a real Texas Ranger. I think they are cool as all get out. I asked him if he was a Ranger, & he said yes, I told him I always wanted to meet a Texas Ranger, & he reached out his hand, & introduced himself as Joe Gordon. I shook his hand & introed myself. He was wearing a .45 high on his left hip. & it had some really fancy gold filigree grips. He was very friendly, & it was fun to meet him, but I would never want to meet him in a combative situation. He looked as tough as nails.
Well that's one more of my to do list things, that I can now cross off. I very much want to go to the Texas Ranger museum in Waco sometime. It's only about 90 miles north of me so I will asap.
Have you ever met a Texas Ranger, & did he impress you, like Joe did me?
