In the olden days, you know, before there were automatic pin setting machines in bowling alleys, pins were set by hand. Usualy this was done by teenage boys. At twelve years old I started my life in America's work force. Many years have passed and I am now seven work days away from being unimployed. At sixty six years and a few months, I am going to be semi retired. Betty and I will be hosting a campground this Summer. So, I guess that makes us semi retired.
For a few months now our activities have been focused towards getting ready to go to the campground in Colorado.
Travel Trailer and Jeep projects are mostly completed. Animal care arranged. Bills set up to pay online, ect..
The end of a almost thirty five year Law enforcement career is drawing to a close.

About Me
- mountainborn
- Vandervoort, Arkansas, United States
- Deep in the heart of the Ouachita Mountains of Arkansas, Mountainborn lives the ancient hunting lifestyle of his forebearers, while blending modern technology into his mountainer’s daily activities. Millitary skills learned in South East Asia during the Viet Nam era, compliment his woodsman’s techniques, and saturate his life. Mountainborn’s Grandmother worried about her grandson while he was away in the military. She wrote a widely published poem about him titled MOUNTAINBORN, the name stuck. He longed for those misty mountains, while overseas, but the ancient lifestyle was the thing that he missed the most. There was just something about roaming those remote mountains with a gun and a dog that he constantly dreamed of. His descriptions of the Ouachita mountains and hunting to provide for his family constitute the MOUNTAINBORN CHRONICLES. Currently serving as Chief of Police, Larry Harmon lives with his wife Betty and retired drug dog Dillon at the foot of Cross Mountain, near Vandervoort, Arkansas.The MOUNTAINBORN CHRONICLES is dedicated to the memory of CLARA GANDY ANDERSEN.His Grandmother taught him to dream beyond the Mountains that surrounded him.
