So here I am joining the world of bloggers. This is a big step for someone born in 1949. I missed the 50's poddle skirt era because I went from diapers to 11 yrs. old but saw the hippie movement from afar in Amalga, Cache County, Utah, as a teenager. I wasn't a flower child, by any means, we were all pretty sensible with no drug culure to ruin our lives that I know of. I married the love of my life and spent the 70's and 80's busily raising 8 (7 living)children in Utah, Colorado, Arizona and briefy in Belmont, Mass. I've witnessed technology advance at lightning speed. I've enjoyed the ride. So, why not be a blogger, too.
