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. |
Hello Grands and All Others It has been a bit since I wrote last. We have had a few different snow falls, One a Major event. Our church was cancelled for the first time I can recall due to weather. It has been a long and colder March. We are know way behind with the garden outside yard work. It will be playing catch up all spring. But I did put the inside time to good use. I have the internet booth fully stocked so I will put it away for the time being. I will keep my store booth open and ship and maintain. But my concentration will be on the outside work. It will be a challenge with part of my vision gone. I will accept that challenge and the yard will come out better on the other end with God's help. I did see the eye retina specialist. He did not feel I had a retinal disease as my brother does. So hopefully we can go ahead with cataract replacement. He felt that would help what I do see. I am looking at kayak trailers so the wife and I can both go fishing. I can not get two kayaks in the back of our van. The problem is the kayaks come not assembled so that would be another challenge. So we shall see. I am tired and it is late. I will write a few lines again soon to keep you posted. We will see you Grands on Easter. It is always good to see you. I hope you all have a Blessed Evening |
