"Two of my favorite actors to ever play cowboys: Clint Eastwood and the one and only, John Wayne.
Once I met Eastwood, just briefly, but I never had a chance to meet John Wayne.
There was the time that I flew into John Wayne Airport in Orange County, California, and did something I’ve never done before or since. I asked someone to take a picture of me in front of a statue.
It was the 9 foot bronze of The Duke.
There he is … captured in mid-stride, his left arm bent with his hand near his belt buckle, and his right hand just inches from a six-shooter strapped low on his waist.
That’s an iconic image of John Wayne and for any cowboy".
