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 Now Eleven + Day 13 Hello Grandkids, You are missed My, My, How the time flies are we the only ones so busy we lose days. And so now I look back and wonder what we have done. I think the big thing is we sold our beater fishing truck for salvage parts. I sure am glad not have look at that truck anymore. We got enough to cover our repairs over four years, I think. The main under side frame was rotted through, Not highway safe. I hope the person can put the vehicle parts to good use. My brother handled the transaction as we were not up there. There will be no more fishing or second vehicle up north as we use it so little. Buying this old truck was a bad choice on my part, At the time I still had thoughts of using it to take the tractor with trailer to the farm. Now after a few more years I know that will not be happening. That it is another possibility that is no longer an option. So what else is new, We were up at the north location last week. The potatoes are still soil wet. we are so dry here and it is wet up there, both are a problem. We did get the complete lawn mowed which is a lot. We weeded the strawberries with more to do when we go again next week. We are now getting ready for the brothers annual fishing trip. It is three nights and has been an annual event for the last about 30 years. There is normally 4-6 of us there and it is serious fishing. To the twin grandsons Lukas and Levi, Love your brother always but catch more fish then he does. It is a good time. I do not see my brothers near enough. This is important stuff. This week we are staying close to home, doing garden work, painting and internet item listings. We have another Flea Market on Sunday. The weather looks good. It does look like it will cool down some, but still not much chance for rain. I hope you have a Blessed Week, Did you guys get the eggs collected? |
