Three Score and Ten the Introduction, Well here we go, After 50 years I am going to take another attempt at writing. The first time was the Palmer writers correspondence school in 1969. The writing will be not a book that will be written with the idea of being published, But will be a writing of thoughts unencumbered by possible publishing and monetary gain. This writing will be a hybrid of Journal and Reminisce. It is important to me that the writings are my true thoughts at the time, not influenced by any factor. The writing will try to explain how a 70 year old white, male USA citizen now relates to today's world. Is every oldest generation lost in their own world, that they aged into? What do I see, and feel as I age farther. I know I am not normal as in what this world today would consider normal. But I hope I am in the ball park writing the thoughts of a 70 year old. I hope for you to learn to know who I am, As I search for Who I am at 70+ This work will carry on until I am no longer able to think or write. This will be done on a nearly daily writing interwoven with a life's reminiscing. This writing has been in the planning for 10 plus years. and I have now made it to this starting point. This writing is dedicated to My Wife The Kitten, My family, My grand children, Lukas, Levi, Luis, Lydia and Sonora Pearl. I thank you God that you have allowed me to have your Three Score and Ten Time. |
| Three Score and Ten + Day 52 The days of fall are getting short, so painting days are getting fewer in number and our painter has not showed up. Evidently she is busy with another bigger job. So I started painting yesterday and made some progress. I will paint again tomorrow and go till this years project is finished. The problem with a old house is that it is always an old house that needs attention. Our Queen Ann which we love was built in 1897 with character. I always wanted a Painted Lady on Main Street, you could say I have an Old Lady on Mainstreet that needs Make Up. I just took the Little Dog up stairs for his Monthly bath. He has such short legs and long hair he gets dirty easily. But he does not fight the bath, but it is a job. I do the transporting and she does the washing. The Little Dog looks great after a bath and combing. This weather today will be most likely the last opportunity this season for me to go Kayak fishing. So I am going to let the painting rest a day and drive 1.5 hours and hopefully catch some fish. the fishing from a Kayak has become very popular in our area. I like to think I was one of the first 20+ years ago. There is something special being alone in the Kayak with a fish pole and good weather,[little or No wind]. I have outfitted the Kayaks with a portable fish locator. I need to load up and gets ready to leave so this will be shorter. I will give you a report when I return. Till then Have a Great Day |
