When Willie Nelson's house caught fire early in his career, he only went back in to rescue two items: a pound of weed and his legendary guitar, Trigger. For the past five decades since that fire, Trigger has been there ever since.

This is a man who wrote "Just roll me up and smoke me when I die", and owns his own marijuana company in Colorado after all.
We happen to own property in Willies' home town down here, and our joke is if we want to find Willie we just need to follow the smoke

Am I right?

The way I first heard the story, the house caught on fire and Willie was not there. In the midst of the fire fighters and on lookers standing outside Willie comes barreling in in his pickup, jumps out leaving the door open, runs inside and emerges with Trigger and the weed in hand.

Willie has his priorities.
