Good stuff brother. :)

In 67 was pissed because the family just had move from Monterey Country Ca to BFE. To the family farm in a little bofunk town in IL. Boy was I teenager out of place there! Guess it started back then now that I think of it. Missed all the fun it seems.

But was glad when my Father made it home from Vietnam that earlier that same year.
