Excellent quote.
Bet you were a big Paul Harvey fan! I loved his quote on how God made a farmer….
Yes, indeed, DD. I started listening to Paul Harvey with my dad in the 50s. Some tender times.
After many adult Harvey-less years, I found him again, by chance, in 1988. Listened with great pleasure until he died.
Fortunately, his voice is still on Youtube.
Thank you for the tickle.
