Description
Jon is a fifth generation Texan and retired from the mainframe computer business in 2005 to his ranch in Mills County, Texas, outside of the small town of Goldthwaite. The ranch is almost “smack dab” in the middle of the fine state of Texas and could be “Any Small Town, USA”. A great place to live, raise kids and enjoy all the wonders of the beautiful outdoors.
