When I am not traveling or working on a project for one of the three
charitable organizations I started over a span of the last twelve years-the North Texas Book
Festival, Inc., Communities civic League, Inc. and the Argyle Seniors’ Activities Center. I am
busy writing another mystery in the “Bo Series,” Bo and the Mystery of Tumbleweed Ranch.
Rowdy’s Night Before Christmas, Bo and the Christmas
Bandit, Sugar Lump's Night Before Christmas and Images of America Argyle
are now available in bookstores and
on the internet.
Happy reading!!!

Argyle
With its large trees and rolling hills, the small town of Argyle is nestled between the Grand Prairie and
the Blackland Prairie. In the 1850s, settlers found Argyle’s natural resources perfect for growing crops and
raising cattle. In 1881, when the Texas and Pacific Railroad built tracks through Denton County, Argyle became
a town. Those who led the way to bring modern conveniences and provide protection for the people of Argyle are
pointed out in this book, which tracks Argyle’s history from a farming community to a modern town. Through the
years, Argyle citizens have worked together to benefit the community, which has continued with local charitable
organizations—the Argyle Food Pantry, the Argyle Seniors’ Activities Center, the Communities Civic League, Inc.,
and the Argyle Education Foundation.
