A mary ann tilden. She was a real estate dealer. There used to be an old recluse that lived way back in the hills from us in lincoln park that invited us to a dog feast at his place one time. He used to come into town at night and gather a few dogs and take them to his place and tie them to tree s till he was ready to eat them. They got him one day and ate him. He was about 6-5 or so and weighed about 320 or so lbs. Pretty big guy.I retired in 1980. I was a orginizer for the teamsters union, at hanford, wash. and moved to oregon, where i worked in sporting goods selling firearms for 5 years and then drove a truck for a good friend for 4 or 5 years before i had to quite because of getting behind in my yard work etc. We live up by Mt Hood oregon and have lived here for 38 years. I built 2 houses and sold 1 so we havent had a house payment for many years.Very nice. We have a motor home but dont take i! t hardly at all because of price of fuel. We got a boat and do manage to go to the reservoirs in the summer for a few weeks.We live in a recreational area here so it s like were on vacation all the time anyway.Well enough of me let me know what your up to now.
