Description
This is Eldon Craig, age 78, September 2007 - Chisholm Trail Cattle Drive, Oklahoma Centennial. I featured Mr. Craig, he said just call him Eldon, in a book I published in 2009.
He was so much fun to talk to! "Somebody asked me why I was still in good health. I said, a good wife, good food and good whiskey, but be careful with the whiskey!" I originally titled this "Old Cowboy."
About riding the Chisholm Trail.
"It was just enjoyable to think I was going up the way Jesse Chisholm basically followed up '81, *US 81, but with people watching."
Here's the quick facts: Native Oklahoman. Married Aletha Morgan in 1951 and has a few children!
