I always wanted to be a cowboy like Hopalong Cassidy when I grew up. My family and friends thought that was a crazy idea. As it turns out, they were right. I should have returned to South Carolina and worked as a Chemist after USAF.
I think of my Donegal and Newberry and UK Library school classmates often (just this morning during my walk): where are they? What are they doing? Are they happy? How many have married foreign wives? Hmmm--where are they on this wonderful earth? Sad I did not attend the 50 year Donegal reunion--too depressed by my unemployment.
FAVORITE WAY TO LET OFF STEAM: Go for a walk! Pickup debris along a creek like I did behind the Nat. Library of Medicine
