Hello fellow Shep fans!! I am a native of Indiana,(like Shep), and so it has been easy for me to relate to all of his stories ref Indiana and his days in the Army. I fell in love with Manhattan when I was there in the seventies, and could "live there in a New York minute!".. My current job allows me to travel all over the state and I have been lucky enough to see Shep's childhood stomping grounds... Shep left us a lot of clues about the details of his life,( for anybody willing to really listen), and I don't think he was as secretive about his past as some have suggested. I listened to a Limelight show recently and he tells us his barracks at Camp Crowder was on Tennessee street.(This was the episode of Labor Day 1964..) Recently, I sent Mr Jim Clavin(SP?) an e-mail with photo attachments, as I'm pretty sure I located the real location of "Ollie Hopnoodle's Haven Of Bliss".(again,it was because of Sheps' very descriptive story-telling in "Monsters Of Michigan", that I located it at "Sister Lakes" near Dowagiac and Cassopoulis Michigan.. (Punch Sister Lakes into your browser and you will find pics, etc, and a tale mirroring Shep's tale of the "MONSTER!!!!) I was an investigator for many years in the past, and now that I have some time to travel a bit, I do hope to solve some of Shep's riddles, and look forward to conversing with the good folks on this forum..... Excelsior !!!!!!!!!!!![:D] In Hoc Agricula Conc In Est Spittle Louk 0
