Being young and dirt poor and so happy to have money for milk.
Doug quit the fire department to try and make a go of the Auto shop.
We had 3 or 4 kids and were pulling in about $250. a month.
Could not have made it without LouJean and John buying groceries.
But we were happy and in love.
And speaking of the fire department, I miss:
Visiting Doug and Kay and the "Duffer" at the Eden Fire House.
The "Duffer" was famous for his pickled eggs in the fridge.
Look who is the "Duffer" now......ohhhh.
I miss:
Staying up all night making Easter Dresses for Holly, Robin, and Nikki.
again....
.....And agian....... plus Mac plus Carly...
And again......I seriously would not have the energy to stay up all night.....
or the patience it takes to sew....I have moved on.
And lastly tonight.... I am missing......
Neighborhood "Halloween Parties" at the little red house.....and missing "wanting to go".
Got there in the back of a truck,..
this is the "last" costume party I ever got Doug to....
and the last time he wore a dyed green nylon stocking over his head.
Stay tuned>>>>
