In the sometimes violent southwest during the growth years of 1850 to 1900, there were many kinds of bandits, outlaws, Indian threats, and gunslingers out to prove a point.

But there was another kind of law, the hunter. Paid well on success, bur often dying long before they had the chance to enjoy all that money. Bounties are like gold. The more you get, the more you want. Here is one, who becomes two, ...

There is evil in this world. A lot of it, and it has little to do with God or the Devil. Both have a say in our lives. It depends on which one you listen to. However the true sociopath will listen to nobody at all, including other sociopaths, because they already believe they are above everyone else. Everyone. Eating one's victims is not new. But it is horrific, and those in authority are damned determined to bring them down- or take them out. Permanently. Sometimes, everything seems to get in the way- or the perp may indeed be smarter. Beware. #TheStoryteller- Enjoy!

The mind can play funny tricks on us. Ask any psychologist. Is this the present? The dream or the reality? How do we know? Often, we who dream deep and hard cannot tell at the time… Others find that with training or instinct they can pull themselves out of a nightmare. Not so much with reality, right? Then, there is Austin ‘Whitey’ Whitmere. Mild mannered, strong, a solid man. Salt of the earth. Plagued by the same nightmare, over and over. He is a good man, but one with a violent… past? Future? It needs exploring, don’t you think?

So, then that man, who is far wiser in this land of the west, takes her by the hand and helps her find her footing.

He seemed a drifter. A no-account man in black in the severe environment of the desert. But that was the way he liked it. He was, after all, a hunter of men, and very, very good at it. But he had thought long ago to have left his heart on the battlefields of the Civil War. He was stunned to find helpless, religious folks under the threat of evil, and then, even more surprised, when one of them helped him discover his heart. He got it back. Now, he was in a different war for a hell of a lot better reasons… Enjoy- GWT #TheStoryteller

All over this big old world are thing from long ago, hidden away by time and deterioration. Some are beautiful, even in ruins, and you can probably name a half dozen off the top of your head. There are some, however, that are so difficult to find, so dangerous to travel, where we are unwanted, that those explorations have been spotty at best and forty years apart.

Unafraid, determined, and sometimes, ...

These players are not angels. No angels would go where they go, nor do what they do to survive. Often, these are the people on the front line of discovery, taking giant steps in vicious lands, where life is cheap, and the rewards, should they be found, can be extensive. Anthropologists shudder at the very idea of interfering with a native or indigenous people, but when the rewards are on the other side of those pesky savages, well, the opinions can change, all right. But survival can come at a price, and only the strong might make it. Life is what happens while you make your plans… Enjoy....

I was perfectly happy to exist as a Detective First, sweeping up the detritus and the flotsam of the underbelly of Denver. True, I drank too much, hated everybody, almost, but I was a damned good cop on the job. Then, I found a murder that did not exist. Then another. It took me to places I have never considered. It has taught me things I should have learned at my mother’s knee. It sent me on a trip so close to hell that I felt the heat. And I lived. I loved… and I sobered up.- Ally Whitedove

There is little fanfare about one of the least known fields of study, that of the swamps of the world. They lack the glory of treasure, but they throw themselves into danger at almost every turn.
