 Old time country peddlers

Ah yes, reminds of growing up on the farm. We had to walk to school in knee-deep snow, up-hill both ways no less, even in the summer.

Franky, pull yer' stool up and tell us more...

(Reminds me of my two youngest sisters who are 10 and 13 years younger than me. They were visisting one day on their way home from junior high school. They asked me if we had computers when I was in school. Told them no. They both looked puzzled and said "well how did you learn". Then there was the much younger woman I was dating who wanted to use my phone (pre cell phones). I showed her my "antique" 1940's rotary phone. She had no clue on to dial out! Now she's a school teacher with two Master's degrees. Scary!

Franky we have peddlers in DeTwah (Detroit)--'cept thay're not from the country and they peddle things that they don't own. I knew people that worked down town. Typically the peddlers will steal your car and then try to sell it back to you for $50.

Murf: 'round here, Canada is considered a suburb of the US.

Kenny: didn't you tell me your nickname was No Neck?

My former helper is 20. We're friends. He's always harping on me about losing weight. The other day I asked what size is pants were. "30-30" he says. "Guess what" I told him I was your size when I was 26--an' look at me NOW. He says "That's scary". Yup sure is! 'Tis like looking in a mirror that has a 20-year-lag time.
