Y'all check out the call collectors section. I have more photos and a few videos from the trip. Got one of Billy running his scratch box.

Yeah, he had one of my earlier ones and said he wanted another. I carried a couple I had made but hadnt sold. He took em all. Lucky me, Billy is a wheeler dealer that allowed me to get that scratch box to.

Del, I know ya'll had a good time. I don't think one could make that trip and not. Mr. Billy is one of the most pleasant people to be around. He has a wealth of knowledge about calls and callmakers, past and present. It is a real pleasure to go somewhere and be able to play so many different calls. My only regret was that I didn't get one of his scratchboxes too. You don't stay in business for 45 years without knowing your stuff.

Mark, Mr. Billy said those hills are wearing him out. Already told him to come south for spring season.
