My brother had heard so many stories about our cousin in Butler, Mo., we drove to Kansas City, picked Jim up and drove an hour to Butler where we met Curtis and Ann. Soon they had us in the truck, careening across fields to see their black angus herd and their native prairie which they say is beautiful in May when all of the wildflowers are blooming.
Then, we headed back to town to see the hunting store which has many of Curtis's "stuffed" animals on display as well as hunting supplies and an archery range upstairs.
Curtis and Ann are some of the most interesting people I know----how many Angus ranchers/prairie conservationists/hunting store owners do you know. Well, that's not all they are involved in---how about banking/physician/pecan growers/historians, too?
