I read them all, Thurman, your stories trigger my memories. for instance your first jobs..mine was hoeing weeds on a 'huge' field. My older brother was 11, I was 9 and my younger brother 8 and we were paid 50 cents a day for the 3 of us. (Probably all we were worth). My dad would drop us off at the crack of dawn with 3 sandwiches and a quart bottle of water. I don't remember what time we were picked up but the water would be gone as well as the sandwiches. This would be around 1938 and the depression while easing, was wandering into a recession so that 50 cents a day hoeing weeds was cash money. For those younger than Thurman and I, if you didn't have cash money you went without. Suppose that is why I made sure my kids knew how to grow things to eat and that is being passed on to my grandchildren.
