Somewhere along the river… Bill is sitting on his lawnchair and watching the river today. Bill Bagg died last night April 25,2017 at 11:42 pm. May he rest in peace. Please take the time to watch the videos at the end. Much love to his family and to his friends. Gary Strike you were the best friend anyone would want.

The Gillies bridge as we’ve never before seen it! Wonderful!
I was just at his store/house. I need to go back. My parents and daughter were with me. When I go back I am bringing my headlamp! I can’t wait to see what I will find. He told us so many histories, which was super because we just moved her. What a cool man.
