Marv interviews interesting western people. Yes, they exist! Politicians, 
Agricultural Leaders, Producer Groups, along with real live ranchers and young folks involved in 4H, FFA and other youth organizations. Our focus will be the West and to better understand their perspective of the past, present and the future. New interviews will be posted periodically, contingent on when Marv is able to have guests “sit still” long enough to contribute their “Two Cents Worth.”

Thanks for joining us at the “Lazy TX,” our intent is to rekindle your Western Spirit. The poems along with illustrated art are designed to make you laugh, maybe 
shed a tear or two, get that wistful look and definitely yearn to be “Out West.”
The 1970’s found the Lazy TX brand on the right rib of cattle owned by M&G Cattle Co., in Northwest North Dakota. It brings back a lot of memories of a partnership with a good friend. I’m pleased that the Lazy TX is again part of my work.
Enjoy West O’ Kansas City, Cook-Fire-Smoke, and the books to follow. The “Latch String” is always out, and…”We’ll see you in the West!"
