Got a message from a brother in the Texas oil patch titled( Back To The Good Ale Days)
Seems to be true on many aspects of this lockdown.
I can remember not being able to go to school functions as there was no transportation
after 5PM for the farm kids or anyone that lived out on an oil lease (pumpers kids)
Seems we didn't miss much and it made us a lot more independent than the city kids.
All of the Farm and Pumper kids I knew were hunters and reloaders.
I remember my first rifle (a 22) and the box of shells I got with it.
Dad admonished me to never waste a bullet and always bring home something to eat.
The jack rabbits and cotton tails sure did diminish around there for a couple of years.
I wonder if we are headed for a modern day Good Ole Days maybe a back to the future!
