Thought I would share a letter I found on my computer the other day from my son.

Now how can you turn down Diego Rivera. Oh! I'm thinking about the South American artist.  ;)
  Honestly, that letter shows a great deal of maturity on Diego's part. Only you know if it is enough.  ;)

I agree with Pat B., how could you refuse that?  You must be doing a heck of a job raising that boy into a young man!!  If only more fathers were like you!!

     Yep, a Rem. 1100 auto in 20 gauge would be a fine gun for ol Dead Eye, Diego.  Now what kind of chores are there to do in Texas?  Shovel Road Apples, :P remove mobile speed bumps from the roadway(Armadillos) ;), help skin snakes, with his very own snake knife, wash and wax the truck, so it will shine through the dust and will look better on it, set up a road side lemonade stand, so the two cars a day that pass on the road, can get refreshments, catch scorpions, and tarantulas to sell to pet stores, and tourist.  (the two cars a day that pass on the road)  gather up knapple rock to send to me,( ;) ) explain to terrified tourists that those dust devils are not real tornadoes, and offer them some lemonade, (see two cars a day)  hit the power ball, clean the windows, oops that"s Women's work.  Well I don't know of anything else to do in Texas, except to sniff for oil deposits, and pan for gold, or
throw nails out on the road, and offer to fix the flat tires, of the two cars that go by, and ask if they would like a glass of lemonade while they wait...... ::)  Well, I guess you would know of something Dead Eye, can do to earn the shotgun, other than stand out by the roadside in his Cowboy outfit, for photo ops by the tourists.  (the two cars again)
Well I hope you manage to accommodate him.  Oh yeah, get an extra choke in full.  I have a Rem. 1100 auto in 20 gauge, and the full is needed, if he is going to hunt ducks, and doves, etc.  Do you have a trap thrower?  I have the synthetic stock.  Wally World usually has pretty good prices on them.

First real gun I ever got was an 1100 20 ga. in the lightweight model.  One of the best shooting guns I've ever touched, too.  It's still my first choice when it comes to shooting at doves or skeet.  I can shoot that one all day long and not be the least bit sore.

Oh yeah, get him the dang gun, Cip.  ;) :D

That's the best thing I have read for a long time.  If it is only about the money....put me down for a $10.00 donation to his new gun!!!

   Sounds like something I would have written when I was his age ....only his is more clever!!!

I like how he originally wrote that he would pay for half, then erased it to read "all", and then mentions the extra chores he'll do to make up for your half  ;D  Good stuff!

Yep! He needs that gun, and is smart enough not to ask for a .410. They're too expensive for kids to shoot now. Too bad you guys live with all that dirt, he could earn enough here mowing lawns in a summer to pay for it in Florida. Grass needs cutting twice a week during rainey season.

Mr. Cipriano. You have you a good responsible and smart son

     Things are tight here, but with a letter like that, you can put me down for ten dollars at least, it you need it.  Get the Gun!  And the extra choke.  And a nice case!  ;) 8)  You have a great Kid there, heck if you get the gun I will throw in another knife, .....for you! ;) 8)
