This time we will talk about
Warren Buffet. I am his mentor. Every time I do something he does the same
thing. I haven’t been around Warren
Buffet before but I admire him. I
meant he is my mentor… someday I will be a billionaire if I live long
enough. I think he is one of the top 3
richest persons in America or the world.
I think somebody in Mexico is richer than him.
But he still has a few extra dollars.
His son is helping to use some of his money. They are buying a track of land south of
Willcox. And he is trying to farm in
the desert without the water. Better be
good if he can, then he could take that whole dry lake …. 60
square miles of it and farm it. That
would even be better than Dan in Central America
even. That would be a good thing to
spend his dad’s money on.
Like Dan I like to make
something out of nothing too. I am
proud of family and my grandkids and I am also proud of my farm that I used to run back in Illinois. I remember
when I was a kid it wouldn’t grow anything but ticklegrass but now, thanks to Dan it is the best farm
in the county. (picture from 2008)
I mostly proud of the second thing I have
done…. Historic Railroad Avenue. When I
first got on Historic
Railroad Avenue they had a brochure telling what tourists could do in Arizona (30 – 40 years ago). The back of the pamphlet it said that
Willcox has a Historic Distinct but it was filled drugs and derelicts . This Week I read in the Arizona Range
News… a candidate before the city
council said he was making historic
downtown a priority “without a doubt
railroad park is unique and singular, beautiful, historic,
patriotic, momentous, traditional, enduring, and much too small”. They don’t call me mayor for nothing around
here.
This is Dick Seidel the
honorary Mayor of Historic Railroad Avenue.
