This is one thing that I know something about Amber. And you do too!

I was not born on a farm but certainly I was a country boy from the word GO! All of my father's family lived on farms. That is not to say that they were successful by any means. My first memory was being with the next door neighbor, a farmer! My parents had purchased a small lot from them. They had one boy that was about my Father's age.

This elderly Gentleman was as close to a beloved grandfather as any one could ever be. As far as I ever knew, he had no grandchildren. But he loved me! There was no question about that. And I still feel that love today, 68 years after his death. I have a vidio tape of me following him as he was plowing a field right behind our house. He had two horses and his plow was a handle plow. One that you walked behind to guide it. That vidio shows me walking step for step in the furrow, maybe 8 feet behind him.

Amber!

I still feel the tears welling up as I recall all the good times we, that man named Charlie and I had together. The tears come because I did not realize just how good he was to a little boy named Billy, until many many, years later. Every once in awhile a long ago memory will break thru the distance of time, of him for me.

One of the most treasured memory is when he told me that he was building a playhouse for me. Actually it was a corncrib. But in my mind it is still my playhouse because Charlie said so!

I have to think that our time spent together has shaped my being in so many positive ways!

That's cool. I'm glad you have a lot of memories of this man. I'm sure he was a great man. He will live forever in your heart and those memories! I believe that with all my heart!
