Psalm 90:10, "The length of our days is seventy years—or eighty if we are strong....
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.

I have had a exciting two days. I have been working on and cleaning a lot of Fishing Reels. I found one very desirable reel in the lot, a early 1950's Zebco with the old name on it. Now the struggle begins, Do I add it to the collection or put it up for sale? I do plan to fish with it at least once.

The other exciting thing I have been doing is sorting out sheet. I have been acquiring Old Music sheet music for at least twenty five years. It has grown too six computer paper boxes full. Being packed away it is hard to know what I have accumulated. It is time to check it out. I like the cover art work, Early movie promotion song sheets and the songs that bring back a lot of memories. I will need to decide what I want to hang on too and what to let go of. I am trying to again some space. The other thing I am trying to do is stay busy and not get down at this time this season. The days are going fast. We will be having dinner with my daughter and her husband on Christmas day. They are in a West Milwaukee suburb, about 1.75 hours away. I will drive home about 4:00. I no longer like to drive at night. So I will try to be on the Freeway by dark. It sure has been a strange Christmas, We have gone no place, No normalness. We sent the kids checks to buy the grandkids something from us. We will not see the grandkids this Christmas, A first.

It sure is windy here right now, and the temperatures are going to drop like a rock tonight. It sure should be making ice. Maybe next week I can get Ice Fishing down here. For me catching some fish does wonders for the winter mood.

My friends, I wish you and your families A Blessed and Merry Christmas and may we all have a 2021 going in the Right Direction.
