Ten years had past since Larry and Elvis met. It had been nearly six years since they'd seen each other. It was March of 2002. A lot of water had gone under the proverbial bridge. Larry had traveled all over the country telling his story, showing his two videos and singing his songs. Thousands of hearts had been touched.

Then it happened! Another chapter to an already unbelievable story began to take shape. Larry was home taking a breather from a road trip when a couple of men dropped by who had been feeding elk for the Idaho Fish and Game Department. They had seen an old bull elk on a mountain five miles from the Jones's home that they thought looked like Elvis. But how could that be? Elvis would have to be fifteen-years-old! You never hear of a bull elk living past ten or twelve. Out of curiosity, but not really believing that it could be Elvis, Larry went to take a look. You could've knocked the man over with a feather. It was Elvis! Elvis was alive!

In Elk Whisperer, their second video released in 1999, the Jones's had commented that because they hadn't seen Elvis for three years they figured he'd probably died or been killed. But there he was as big as life! He was old but still kick'n. Still Kick'n became the title to the third video.

Larry and Elvis spent from March 12th until May 18th hanging around together on that mountain. It was a splendid reunion. Every day or so Larry would fill his back pack with hay and head out. Elvis appreciated every flake. He'd see Larry coming up the mountain and come running. Just like in the good ol' days he preferred eating from Larry's hand. Inspiration for more songs came as they wandered around through the forest together.

By the fall of 2002 Larry had a video trilogy: Rocky Mountain King, Elk Whisperer and Still Kick'n. Fans all over the country were elated that Elvis was still alive. The story had become legendary. Invitations to perform with his music and videos increased. Everyone wanted to see with their own eyes and hear with their own ears what had happened. Rumors of the amazing reunion preceded Larry wherever he went.

Now, in 2005, Larry is putting the finishing touches to having his videos produced in DVD. The new production is called: The Legend of Elvis the Elk. The Jones's are getting orders before the project is complete. The trilogy will include several bonus features, including a twenty-two song compilation of Larry's songs and the Idaho Public Television piece featuring Larry and Elvis. In additon it will include a charming music video about Larry's grand-daughter Maddy Grace and his horse Joker Jack riding in Maddy's first rodeo event. It is called The Barrel Race.

He was the King of Castle Mountain,

The legend ... it lives on,

Hunters still listen around embered fires,

To him singing his famous song.

When the chill of fall is in the air,

He sings that famous tune,

It whistles through the spruce and the pine,

The King will be here soon,

What he's singing about,

Is a song of years gone by,

When a man fed him alfalfa hay,

And kept the king alive.

The king of Castle Mountain is gone,

But his legend ... it lives on,

Hunters around embered fires,

Still listen to his famous song. . .
