Before the Feast

Shortly after we arrived at the Lewis's home, my brother Jim and his wife Deb also arrived. They had a very early start in CT to arrive in Kansas City around 10 AM.
The Twenter Family arrived early Thanksgiving Day.
Everyone loves the "marble game" building ramps and loop-d-loops for the marbles.
Libby found a new use for the tubes!
It was a beautiful Thanksgiving Day with the men outside around the fire,
While Jason fried the turkey.
Our grandchildren played outside while the women were cooking!


Only Casey (in the house) and Louie (behind a bench) didn't really enjoy the company.
Meanwhile my brother found Roman's drum set in the garage and with a few warm ups, entertained us with some 1970's rock.

Between Two Worlds

Most of my life, I've considered it fortunate that I was just ahead of the Baby-boom. Generally, the Baby-boomers were born between 1946 and 1964 after the fathers returned from World War II. It was a huge population explosion that has reverberated through American society.

This blog will be part history, part memories, part reflections of a retired teacher, but active "Senior". I have always felt like I straddled two generations forming a bridge. Sometimes I think like a baby-boomer, but sometimes I'm locked into my parents' Depression era thinking. I'm a dichotomy of two eras. But, I'm always ready to try something new---so here I am dipping my toes in the water of Blogworld.
