It is half way between New Castle and Wilmington. Lots of kids to grow up with. Late 50's were a wonderful time to be young. I went to school at DeLaWarr High. I took school for granted and never really worked hard, which I later regretted when I went off to college on a baseball scholarship. Mid way through my second semester Sophmore year my father died and that seemed to light a fire under my lazy ass. I got fairly good grades the rest of my time there. Met some great people and enjoyed West Virginia and its laid back life style. Two years in the Navy were a waste of time. I was at least safe on my cargo ship/ The USS Beatlejuice. A lot of boys were being killed in Nam at the time and I shouldn't complain about the boredom of my service. Jean and I hav...Expand for more
e been married since 1968. Great woman. Life is pretty good right now. My job is coming to a slow end. My boss is celebrating his 97th Birthday next week and when he passes away so does my job. Jean and I have a place at the beach that will provide a comfortable future home. After a bad 2009 Jean is healthy. I have aches and pains from abuse,through sports and hunting, the last fifty years. My back is killing me but I still play softball twice a week and at a fairly competitive level. I have catarac surgery coming up soon and hopefully I'll be able to see much better. I have two great boys (men). Both have married lovely young women. Craig has his PHD from Rutgers University. Craig is doing post doctorate work for Rutgers. His wife Kristina works in NY city for Google. Blake is a lawyer in Wilmington with Cooch and Taylor. Ayesha is also a practicing attorney. Both boys should have no problem taking care of me when I get old. I just got a new dog this Spring and he is great... English Pointer, classy, great nose for hunting. My son Blake will be keeping him. We just installed a new post and rail fence. Looking forward to many fun filled hours of hunting over this fine dog. Blake and Ayesha had a lovely baby girl in October. Nice and healthy. It will be fun watching her grow into a beautiful woman. Craig and Kristina just bought a new house and it has five bedrooms. I hope one is for me....and three kids....UPDATE...I now have a Grandson.... Grant. Healthy baby boy. Now I can give away some old baseball gloves. This face book thing is like exploring the moon for me.".
