Jeff is always upbeat.

Interesting article about Jeff Valley. He was in my graduating class, and my shop used to be on his bike route. When I came back to town after college, he still remembered me from high school.

He'd pop his head in the door, and give me a moose call.

"Hooot. Hooooooot." Big laugh.

"Kinda cold today, Jeff?"

"Yeah, Dunc."

"Don't you get tired riding that bike?"

"Yeah, Dunc."

"You doin' good?

"Yeah, Dunc. Hey, Dunc.....hooot, hoooooot."


I can still hear the "Yeah, Dunc's," clipped and cheerful.


Stopped seeing him awhile back and was wondering where he went.
