you too? Joe and I same age I think and I believe he went to Truman or Chrisman? I went to blue mills elementary and would have went to fort osage but we had to move to the farm when grandpa passed..

in high school my uncle was the manager of hillside apts on Truman around the corner from Joe.. he got my mom the mowing contract for several apt. complexes by same owner.. made a lot of $$$ as a teenager :D

just met someone here on the forum recently from Holden where I went to high school.. wanted to meet with him and Joe in July but I got overloaded with chores.. maybe next summer meet up? y'all welcome on the farm, it's out in the boonies but no complaints :lol:

It’s been a year Gerhard
I hope you and the family are well

Hard to believe it's been a year! Gerhard is such a great guy, the whole family took to him and loved hearing all his stories. I hope to take a cruise with him when he is working as the ships engineer someday. Thanks again for the cammo Chevyland hat! It's the only ball cap I'll wear.

1958-59 I was a little kid.
My dad and uncle were in the remodeling business.
My uncle had been there a while.
They both still had farms here.
They moved back here and started building custom houses.
They split about the time I got out of high school and I joined my dad.

Boy buys hammer and nail belt. Rest is history.

I see pics like "other Larry" posted above (and others), and I guess I ought to just go explore this country before I agree with my wife to going to Europe for a few weeks. Lots to see here in the US, most people speak the language (maybe with atrocious accents) and I wouldn't need a passport, even though I have one. If I can double my truck's mileage, maybe I should put in that LS motor, after all. I'd save a young fortune on fuel. :lol:

My wife's parent's house was the 3rd one built in all of Salem East in '69. Carol finally moved out last year. If you remember that well, we live at Jackson Drive/Jones Road and Bundschu. I've heard many a good story about the trails back behind there. I grew up north of Wichita, moved to KC North in '85 and went to Oak Park. ALL of my great teenage fun spots have been bulldozed. Back to Regular programming...

The accents are the fun part! The Power that started in Louisiana was awesome with all the Cajuns talkin' in KS/MO!

Hwy 43 south of town, Compton Mountain, looking east over Crooked Creek Valley. The Forestry Service was doing controlled burns that day, hence the blue haze.
