Bj Smith
Cowboy Poet Extra Ordinaire
Bj Smith is every inch a cowboy. His experiences as a western outfitter and as a Mountie give a genuine richness to his storytelling. The upward curl of his moustache and the mischievous twinkle in his eye along with his easy going delivery makes the laughter come freely whether he is telling a real life adventure or a tall tale from the trail.
