Credits? Lord, where do I start?

Should I go all the way back to Great Grandpaw Johnson and Paw Paw Reuter who were patient enough to answer a curious five year old kid's questions?

Or do I start with my beloved Sheri who has put up with my mess and noise for almost 38 years?

Or with the artist, Carol Lanfear Montgomery, who so graciously gave me permission to use her watercolor "The Blacksmith" as the centerpiece of this page?   email

Or should I begin with Kean Degnon, without whose expertise this web page would just be an idea?

Or with Kean's lovely bride Marge, who took so many of the pictures that you see here?

Or with Marshall Marvelli, who took all of the studio shots of the artwork?

Or with the ABANA publications which have given me so many ideas?

Or with the NCABANA publication which has given me even more ideas and techniques?

Or with the German Blacksmith Bernd Mergener, who has been such a good friend and mentor?

Where do I start?

My profound gratitude to all of the above.
