Turning 75 me too
1950 must have been a good year.
It was that period just after WWII. The country was experiencing a time of euphoria, when everything was looking up. Families were forming, new housing was going up like gangbusters. Lots of babies were being born. That's why those of us born during those years are called "boomers". Born during the baby boom.
Sometimes, when I am logged on, I wonder if other readers realize what a treasure trove of life experience we have here. So many 60 plus year olds. History teaches. "He who forgets history is doomed to repeat it".
