Sunday, October 05, 2014

The last four on the Blue Show were privately owned, Patti Zerbini owned "Luke" and the final three were Chipperfield elephants.

Chic Silber said...: 1994 was the year of that awful

train wreck where Ted Svertesky

was killed & Patty left the show

Buckles was brought in posthaste

Luke was then only 8 years old

He remains a well mannered boy; 05 October, 2014 10:42
Chic Silber said...: Some of those Blue gals must have

been getting on in years maybe

Buckles could tell us some ages

Tommy would have been 50; 05 October, 2014 12:55
Chic Silber said...: I guess many if not most of the

Red herd came over in 69 from

Chic Silber said...: Patty's joint in Williston is

titled "Two Tails Ranch" but I

find it easier to just call it

Patty's Place (has a ring to it); 05 October, 2014 13:28
Chic Silber said...: Just opposite of Tommy & Col Joe

Luke's left tusk curves slightly

lower than his right & it almost

touches where they cross; 05 October, 2014 13:47
