I ws born and raised in a small town. Have 5 brothers and 2 sisters,(all living & well). Life wasn't easy, all the gardening, canning, , washing (old wringer) and ironing..We were poor but didn't know it. Always had what we needed but no frills. Spent
every Sunday afternoon visiting grandparents along with a
house full of cousins, aunts & uncles. Will celebrate my 50th
class reunion in May...Only had 21 in the class and hve lost 4 but the rest remain close friends...Rural Iowa was the best
place to live.
