Friends?
I've heard the expression all my life "with friends like that who needs enemies". Now I know what it meant. For those of you who do not know much about the recent closing and re-opening of Crossroads I'll fill you in a little. Butch went on a little vacation and told James the bartender, at the bar in town, to tell everyone where he was. Four hours later James skipped town with Butch's truck and a bag full of money. Naturally no one knew where either of them were so rumors started flying and people started talking about Butch possibly being dead. In a panic Crossroads was shut down. Some people showed concern and worried about Butch's well being but it's the other "friends" I want to talk about. I don't know if I will ever understand how people who have been in the "Crossroads Family" for years could go out there steal from the bar and store. Then to top it all off to desecrate the the plaque Butch had nailed to a tree honoring Leo. That as far as I'm concerned takes the lowest of life forms. Crossroads and the Crossroads Family will survive. Butch will get over what was done to him but he'll never forget and neither will I.
