I went to work for Sanger Harris in the warehouse shipping out order's to store's. In 1975 I went to work for my Grandad running Heavy equipment doing dirt work. We worked during the spring, summer an fall an when winter came work came to a stand still. SO that when all the Parting began. We were off most the winter, so we hit the Night Club's. I had real good time in Dallas. I worked for my Grandad for about 5 year's an moved back to the " Rock " for a little while. This was around 1980.

We hung iron over the Arkansas River, about a year. I run in to Gail Tally so Iguess we'll be going out for awhile. We do alot of camping in the Ozarks for about 28 year's. Yes we tied the knot. We had James Kyle Price in 1983, he is in the Navy in Virginia Beach, got 6 year's in. The best thing about him, he look's just like me. Gail aready had a boy Micah when we started dating. He is a Fireman in Springdale, Arkansas, has 2 kid's. O.K. let me figure out where I'm at. 1982 good place to start. Went to a Vo-tech school for a 1.5 year's an that where everything started to fall in to place as for what I was going to do for a living. Vo-Tech gave me push as for becoming a Electrican, everything just started to fall in to place. The more I learned the better I got. It was ment to be. 30 year's an still loving it. I live in Nort Little Rock, They call us the " Levy Rat's " We have two black lab's that are just great dog's. I hunt an fish, play the guitar, harp, bass. Love to grill out any time I get a chance. I like my beer ice cold, an my rum over ice, splash of coke, an a twist of lime. Ther still alot to tell, so I'm going to save this an write a little more later. J.P.
