Description

Growing up in the mountains back in the late ‘40s and early ’50s, the main source of entertainment for the three of us Ammons kids was sitting at the feet of our grandfather, Tom Wilson Ammons. Since he was crippled and couldn’t do heavy work, he spent a lot of time with us telling stories, drawing birds, and caning chairs. Hope you find time to listen to our stories of inspiration.
